Re: Problems uploading ~20Mb files

Julian: I have added you account to the wiki contributors list. Wiki edits and uploads should work now. Let me know if it doesn't.

I just uploaded a file to the downloads area, so that part works ok. Let me know if you have further problems.

Re: Problems uploading ~20Mb files

You can always check that a file was uploaded by going to http://archive.worldofdragon.org/index. ... :ListFiles.

Also, Julian, do you have a wiki account? You'll need one to contribute.

Re: DOS nightmares

Guys, Here's a small program that should make it easier to work with DragonDos filesystems hosted inside .vdk or .dsk virtual diskette images. The program can create filesystems, list directories, delete files and transfer files between the DragonDos filesystem and the local filesystem. You'll need ...

Re: DOS nightmares

track = lsn / (SECTORS * HEADS)
head = lsn % (SECTORS *HEADS) / SECTORS

In the meantime, I sho...
