zxzvm_upgrade_to_103.zip
------------------------

An archive file which contains a TAP file for upgrading DSK files with games
which contain ZXZVM version 1.02 to version 1.03. Why to do this? Because ZXZVM
1.03 implements one very nice feature: a possibility of saving game status on
virtual B: disk using B:<filename> as a filename if real B: drive is not
present (the program then will ask user to temporary change disk). This is
very useful if you know that a game disk usually can not store more than 2-3
saved positions...
