Scott -


Look at the files.ar source in DL9. It's fairly simple though:

  1) Open directory of choice for DIR+READ
  2) Scan entries at 32 bytes each (29 name; 3 LSN of FD Sector)
  3) When you find the name you want, get the LSN for its FD Sector
  4) Open the WHOLE disk (i.e. /d1@, /dd@), and seek & read that
     sector number. Extract the file's size from here.

Pete
