I've recently been after several pieces of code for the Apple. I have an unmodified Apple //e, with an 800K MicroDrive and 128K of RAM. The code I'm after includes: o COPY o SHRINKIT for non-65C02 (Mousetext) computers o A public-domain ProDOS-8 driver for standard Hayes modems, with some editing capabilities (just a line input/output) o A program to read files from disk, sensing End of File, and allowing interruption of the READ from the modem input, preferably with a PAUSE at a set line increment. If you haven't guessed, it's for a bulletin board. The crux of my dilemma, however, is my search for the COPY command. I downloaded one from COMP.BIN.APPLE2 here, and then ran it through BINSCII. It gave me a file, COPY.SRK.SYS, with the filetype $E0. I can't execute or load this file ... is it in Shrinkit format? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. Markum.

Files of type $E0 are NuFX archives, which are readable by ShrinkIt and related programs. A pair of programs to shrink and unshrink files on the II Plus and original IIe is available on brownvm.brown.edu. A COPY and a TYPE command for ProDOS have both been published in Nibble. When I get back to my room, I'll look up the issues. Offhand, I think the COPY command was published in November or December 1985. ---------------------------------------- /| | Scott Alfter | _ |/_ | Internet: saa33413@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu | / \// \ | free0066@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu | / / Apple IIe: ---------------------------------------- | | | A keyboard--how quaint! | | \ The power to | --M.

Files of type $E0 are archived library files; the auxiliary type (or auxtype) of the files distinguishes the specific kind. Auxtype $8002 indicates a NuFX archive; the Finder properly reflects this.

Sorry about the slight slip-up. Life was simpler before the IIGS and its extensive use of the "auxiliary type." I suppose, tho', that we have to pay some price for progress! :-) ---------------------------------------- /| | Scott Alfter | _ |/_ | Internet: cs122aw@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu | / \// \ | saa33413@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu | / / Apple IIe: | free0066@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu | | | ---------------------------------------- | \ The power to | A keyboard--how quaint! | \ / be your best | --M.
