Thank you Robert. I've been having some fun with c64 disks. I think I will figure out how to unhide some files that I can't see. I have an Infocom game called Spellbreaker and the prg file is 3 blks or 3 something. I know it has to be larger than that because if I copy just the prg flle to another disk. It doesn't run. Its a stretch for me basically using DOS from the start. Yeah I had a c64 but the things I did was play games or write really small programs then save them to disk. --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A34 (Windows/32)* Origin: Agency BBS | telnet://agency.bbs.geek.nz (3:770/100) SEEN-BY: 57/0 116/102 130/210 512 153/250 218/630 317/2 393/68 633/267 280 SEEN-BY: 640/384 712/620 848 770/0 1 3 100 340 772/0 1 210 500 @PATH: 770/100 1 712/848 633/267 |
