* Does anyone in netland know how CP/M structures its directorys? I am trying to interface an Intel bubble memory to a Systems group S-100 processor and am having trouble with the directory. I can use ddt to load a program into RAM, escape from ddt and SAVE the file in the bubble memory without any problem. The file appears in the directory for the bubble pack, yet I cannot PIP to the bubble without getting an error - NO FILE - from PIP. Envoking ED from the bubbles causes the error message DIRECTORY FULL to be returned. I am following the guidelines set out by Louis Wheeler in his Byte articles, but he makes no mention of this type of problem. I would appreciate mail from anyone who has an idea as to how I may overcome this difficulty. Stephen King, DCIEM Toronto ...(ihnp4 and others)!utzoo!dciem!king

Stephen, I could recommend the older book "Programmer's Guide to CP/M", extracted articles from older Microsystems Magazine, Microsystems Press. It has many details on the CP/M library schemata. Regards, David Kirschbaum Toad Hall ABN.ISCAMS@USC-ISID

Try to get a copy of DU (Disk Utility). This famous public domain software will not only show you how the directory is organized, but will also let you modify it.
