TL>A new version of namefix will be released that has a fixed p8/prodos
TL>script (thanks to the guy who pointed out the mistake) as well as
TL>the new
scripts from Jeff Brielmaier. And yes, the line 91 thing is TL>fixed too
:).
Could you also modify line 44 as shown:
 44 : ?d$"unlock"nm$:?D$"bsave"NM$",a$"FS$",t"FT$",l$"FL$",b$"BL$: POKE
35,24
This way if the file is locked, NameFix doesn't error out.  Using
Cat.Doctor
to copy files maintains the Access_bits on the desination copy.  So I
was
having NameFix indicate that it had failed to patch the program when it
couldn't save the modified image :(   [I found this after expanding the
error
codes that NameFix looked at:
 90 ZZ =  PEEK (222): IF ZZ = 6 THEN ER$ = "file not found"
 91  IF ZZ = 9 THEN ER$ = "disk full"
 92  IF ZZ = 10 THEN ER$ = "file locked"
 93  IF ZZ = 14 THEN ER$ = "program too large"
 94  IF ZZ = 17 THEN ER$ = "volume directory is full"
 95  IF ZZ = 4 THEN ER$ = "write protected"
 98  IF ZZ = 255 THEN  TEXT : END
 99  GOSUB 80: GOTO 39
One note:  The Cat.Doctor and SiderFile scripts will not allow for a
>volume<
name to begin with a non-alphabetic character.  I'll be looking into how
to
"fix" this in the near future..... (I discovered it last week).
TL>A new version of 2qwk (1.01b1) will be released that: TL> TL> -
incorporates
Jeff's very quick .CNF maker (580 conferences in around TL>   six
seconds on my
GS, around 4 if using text mode).
That is approximately my timing w/ a Transwarp enhanced //e.  BTW, I
have a
similar patch for v0.98C, but I never got around to passing it out
(that's why
I had the routine so quickly for v1.09b :)
