- After seeing Jack Wright's version of the disk space checker I decided
- that I wanted one. But when I tried Jack's version it wouldn't work on
- my machine. So, since I'm not a Programmer, it took me a lot of work, but
- I got Jack's revised so it work's on my machine. I hope it works on yours
- also.
-
- PCTRDSP.MRG should be merged with PC-TALK.III. It will check how much disk
- space you have left for downloading while connected to another computer.
- It has only been tested on 2-sided drives. For 1-sided drives, It should
- work if you change the 1024 in line 3135 to 512.
-
- It is used by typing Alt-V (the PC-TALK "View" command). Then by viewing
- the disk directory using the "?". The "View" command will now list the
- directory followed by the number of bytes of free space remaining on the
- "logged" disk (which disk is the logged disk can be changed via the Alt-L
- command). The logged disk is normally the B: disk. The "View" command
- otherwise works exactly as before.
-
- The values presently used in the DEF SEG and CLEAR statements assume a 128K
- system.
-
- DO NOT CHANGE "DSK=&H100" (unless you enjoy debugging).
-
- My version was only made possible through the use of Jack Wright program.
- So if you like this modification you should thank Jack Wright where ever
- he is.
