MLOAD25 is a transient command used to convert a "HEX" file (the
output of an assembler) into an executable "COM" file.  MLOAD takes
a program that is in valid Intel hexadecimal format machine code and
converts it into a command file that can be executed.  The file
becomes filename.COM (the hexadecimal file is filename.HEX).  This
form may be used as a replacement to the Digital Research "LOAD"
command.  The program may also be used to overlay portions of a
"COM" file with patches assembled to a new "HEX" file.  Makes
configuring MEX, IMP, MDM7, etc., easy.  This library contains
assembler language source, executable COM file, and documentation.

This version of MLOAD corrects a problem that was first reported with
Z33 systems, but also shows up with a normal CP/M 2.2 system.  The
program overlays the first six bytes of the CCP.  This may cause the
system to lock up if a jump to the CCP is done before a warm boot is
issued.  The correction is a one instruction change.  The program has
been released as version 2.5, so that new users of the program will be
assured of getting the latest version.
