New utility to manage CoCo-SDC
Posted: Sat Aug 08, 2020 8:44 pm
Hello,
I was working to create a standalone utility to allow DP50Extended users to manage the SDC while working with
other DOS versions that they'd like more ...
I have ended up with a binary file that allows for the most frequently used commands.
I am uploading here a zip with an VDK that contains the binary file and a text file explaining the syntaxis to use that new utility ...
enjoy

Pd While testing it in deep, I found out a flaw that lays in DP50E since the begining, afecting the SDRIVE command:
In case you have NO disk mounted on drive1, issuing the command SDRIVE will most of the times return only data
for drive 1 even if you had something mounted in drive 2.
Now it shows both drives in all cases!
