Al, If I remember right and the documentation to Orchestra Master is
correct, "PenPal" was written by Roland Knight and Dave Shewchun of Four
Star Software who also authored "Orchestra Master" (a software Orchestra 90
clone), "Bugs" and "Coco Paint"
I checked all my archives and can't find a copy of PenPal but I remembered
it being mentioned in the Orchestra Master docs so I looked there and go the
names of the authors who mention their other software.
You may be able to google them and find them, also check on facebook

I bought a program back in day called Penpal (reviewed in the April 1986
Rainbow, pg 184)
I’m trying to image all my disks to make backups. This one, and the data
disk
for it, give me I/O errors.
1. Does someone have an image of this disk?
2. The review doesn’t say, but does anyone remember if this software is
protected against copying?
3. Wasn’t there copy utilities for the CoCo? I seem to remember Disk
OmniClone.
Also, some of my disks for the Coco Graphics Designer Plus don’t work. I
need
images of the complete set if anyone has them. The zip file on the archive
site
is only one disk. It doesn’t have the fonts, borders, and clipart disks we
supplied. My habit was to take a backup copy of the master set home for
safekeeping in case of a fire. Stewart used to have sets of disks too. As
you
can imagine, he no longer has those. Whatever I have, or can find is all
that’s
left of Zebra System’s software.
As well as Spectrum Projects. I have masters of everything up to 1987 or so.
But, nothing after that.
I still have to get my disk storage box down from the high shelf so I can
see
what’s in it.
What do people use today to store and organize 5.25” floppies?
