I don't remember exactly but it was ment to be something like:
Drive Wire Extended Executable Binaries ... Tormod Volden could tell us the exact meaning!
These are programs written in assembler that read and write from/to the DW server
using the DWRead and DWWrite std routines
In fact you could do anything you could imagine ...
I created dweebs to see the directory of an VDK: VDIR
Then another to load any file. VLOAD and VLOAD1
LROM to load and run any ROM from DW4 (needs a 64k machine)
And to me the ones I needed to convert the VDK to physical floppies:
FLO2V and V2FLO to copy between the two formats (VDK <-> floppy)
Later I made LDA to load plain ASCII Basic files
In that thread you will find many others by Tormod

I tried to load the basic programs. Got some "?NO" errors on some, but many others loads without problems. Unfortunately some of them can't run because of some CLEAR instructions inside the code. Maybe it's a memory conflict... But the loading was fine. Any ideas about the "?NO" error
Unfortunately it was impossible to load any BIN programs, again got some error messages (I didn't note the error...). I'll try again and write down the message.
EDIT : Also, what is exactly a "dweeb" ? A kind of patch for DriveWire ?

You are right, maybe the full text for every error could help us understand what happened ...

?NO is an error from BASIC telling that you are trying to access a file that's NOT yet OPEN
Hope extra info will throw some light!

Don't forget the wiki! There's some info I wrote on Dweebs here - http://archive.worldofdragon.org/index.php?title=Dweebs
