Yeah, I have the dEd program. That can be very useful. What we need is tutorial
on reading directorys as opening a file, getting the information and converting
it into something readable like a 'dir e' would do in Basic09. That is the only
thing holding me back at this moment from writing a badly needed utility. I
work alot of hours so I don't get to devote the time that I would like to to
figure out how to get that information. The best I get to is to read the manual
while working. Now that's fun! If I could just get a little push in the right
direction, I could really get started on a few things. The manual tells what
certain things do by using syscall, but it doesn't tell you how to convert the
information into something readable. We need a book called "Inside Basic09"
real bad! ...Anybody wanna write it?{ If I didn't have to work so
much.....
