being new to my CP/M system, i must do some stupid things at first. therefore, i accidentally turned off the power to my system while a file was open. (actually, this happened during an editing session with MINCE - I don't know if it was swapping at the time). I now get the following nonsense which I don't understand. When I do a DIR, the directory prints out as it should. when I do a TYPE FOO.*, (where FOO.SUB was the file that MINCE was editing for me), I get a BDOS error Illegal ??? in FCB and on the next line, BDOS function 15. Apparently, Function 15 has to do with opening the file, but at this point I get lost. EVERYTHING ELSE seems to be working.... help?? many thanks. Lin@mit-mc or g.cornella=c4f@ucb-arpa
