Re: Auto-Start-Up Program in DOS 3.3/ProDOS?



..and there is the instance of the DOS 3.3 that was laid out on the
disk, while "HELLO" is the default suggested name - it may be
somehting else.


You can be sure by initializing the disk..

INIT HELLO,D1 or D2.. or just no ,D1 is the last drive used.

INIT <FILENAME> and that is the boot name. So INIT BYTE-ME and it will
boot and look for a  BASIC entry named BYTE-ME

.. or mine, lots of them were 'GOODBYE' just to be a renegade.

ProDOS, of course- as noted is the first entry of XXXX.SYSTEM in the
directory.

This order is the order in which things appear from a CAT or CATALOG
in BASIC. Not necessarily the order a particular utility might show
you. Some of them order by date, alpha, or other way..
