This file is short description how to install ZXVGS on Pentagon (emulator). 
ZXVGS is operating system for ZX Spectrum compatibile computers.

Copy all files from this archive to the directory with your emulator then
execute the script "ZXVGSPEN.BAT".


For ZX_EMUL I assume presence of following entries in "ZX_EMUL.INI" file:
	ROM_SOS="sos.rom"
	ROM_TRD="dos.rom"
	ROM_128="128.rom"
	START_MODE=128K
	MOUSE_SWAP=ON
The script exchanges "SOS.ROM", "128.ROM" and "DOS.ROM" files.


For R80 0.21 I assume presence of following entries in "R80.INI" file:
        RomTRPentagon=trdos.rom
        MemoryPentagon=512k       ;with this you can use ZX128 as usual
The script exchanges "TRDOS.ROM" file.


For X128 0.8 ZXVGS should work in Pentagon mode (not tested). The script
exchanges "128TR.ROM", "ZX128_1.ROM" and "TRDOS.ROM" files.




The "ZXVGS.BAT" script called with /X parameter recalls original contents of
the "*.ROM" files, if they were modified. Do not delete the "*.RO_" files!!!

After you exchange the "*.TRD" file, select "<Q>uit" from ZXVGS menu.


Since 0.29 release there's a possiblility to create "*.TRD" diskimages from
MS-DOS files with QTRANS.EXE program. (Diskimage made this way has CP/M
structure compatibile with CP/M for Scorpion.) To add more files to the 
"*.TRD" diskimage, copy them to ZXVGS subdirectory then execute:
	QTRANS ZXVGS ZXVGSPEN.TRD



Files with archives on HTTP servers ("nnn" are three digits):
	ZXnnnPEN.zip	- archive with ROM files
	ZXVGSnnn.zip	- archive with hardware independent files
