Does anyone know what the CLI Dos functions (i.e. copy,rename, delete,dir,…) know that we don't? They seem to expect things passed to them that are undocumented. I know that A0,D0 pass the command line and length but they make use of other registers as if they had meaningful information in them. I have a feeling that this stuff is comming from the CLI. Does anybody know about this? Why would it be undocumented? It would be nice to use the info in utilities written by ordinary people. Darrel
