Not Being an avid os9 user (IBM or Msdos 5 is much friendlier, in my opinion) I
am forced to put up with os9 innability to do much of anything from an OS
standpoint. Does anyone Know where I can find such utilities as: TREE (or
something like it), a NORTON COMMANDER like util, WHEREIS or FILEFIND, and
lastly, is there any way I can make the prompt show the current directory (yes,
like DOS) ? Im running OS9 2.2 68k from Micoware. How about a disk fix program
that marks bad sectors out of the allocation table or am I dreaming ?
 I just read about MSHELL. What is that ? Being new to os9 is a pain. My system
at home (286) cranks and thats what I want to do with this box but Im a little
short on utilities. Anyone have a few suggestions?

                               Thanks,
                                   James.
