Happy Starwars Day!  May the fourth be with you!

Prior Phlog entries were created with AED, a minimal text editor
created  for  the Agon.   AED is perfect for code editing on  the Agon,  
allowing for system software development withot needing an additional
computer.

A new project for the Agon has recently started.
ZINC (Zinc Is Not CP/M) is designed to allow the Agon's  enhanced Z80
cpu  (EZ80) to run CPM-80 programs directly from the  Agon's file 
system.

So,  today's  Phlog is being written directly on the  Agon  using
WordStar  3.0.   It  will be spell checked with  SpellStar.
The beauty of writing on the Agon is that it allows creation  without
the  distractions  provided  by a computer which is  Facebook
or Youtube capable. 

So let's set the scene here. The AgonLight2 is a $50 single-board
computer attached to a VGA monitor,  using a microSD card as the
mass storage. 

Modern retrocomputing in CP/M.  Cool stuff.
