Thanks to JeremyG for making his Microbee disk collection available to be imaged. All were 5.25" standard Microbee disks and all imaged 100% error free using the Floppyio with ubeedisk.
All the disks were for a 56k Microbee, with one marked as RHT. This turns out to be The Random House Electronic Thesaurus ver 1.2. After the initial screen is displayed, it then shows:-
The word COMPUTER brought up a number of alternatives, however, MICROBEE was not found, for some strange reason
From the read.me file on the disk :-
The Random House Electronic Thesaurus
The file RHT.COM can be run on any CP/M system.
The file MODIFY.COM can be run only on WordStar 2.26 or 3.0x
versions, which modifies the WS.COM file and incorporates the
thesaurus into WordStar itself.
So can be a useful addition for any Wordstar user. Unfortunately a User Manual has not been located, so not sure how to use it within Wordstar. If anyone could help there, that would be great
So in the MbeeTech Repository in the Microbee\Software\Applications\Wordprocessors folder we placed
random_house_thesaurus_ds40.dsk
