How does one transfer ProDOS files from one directory to another directory on the same disk? Also, what is the recommended method for reading an entire text file when you don't know its length? I wrote a machine language (so it can read commas) routine to read a text file into a text array. It exits by ProDOS's OUT OF DATA error to the Applesoft statement specified by ONERR GOTO. Is there a better way? (Perhaps by reading the directory file and parsing out the ENDFILE coulumn?) -- Doug Reeder USENET: ...!tektronix!reed!douglas Box 502 Reed College 3203 S.E.

If you don't need to do it within a program, the Filer utility can do this. ============================================================================= Paul Blumstein;Citicorp/TTI| Everyone is a 10 in some base numbering system.
