Software and Documentation, ZSHELL by Misosys
Object Details
- Description
- This software and documentation for the TRS-80 was published by Misosys of Virginia in 1983. ZSHELL was developed by Karl A. Hessinger to provide an easy way to redirect the input and output from an executed program to a file or other device. The instruction manual gives the example of redirecting the output from a program, which would normally appear on the screen, to a printer.
