A lot of you probably don't know what ProDOS File Navigator is. It was
a program launcher and file viewer that I wrote by myself in Applesoft
BASIC so many years ago, with some help from some people here. It was
used on my hard disk image, which I frequently uploaded to Asimov
because I had the deluded thought that somebody might actually want to
look through my crap. Anyway, the last version was 2.5, and ever since
then I'd thought of rewriting it in assembly language. It took me a few
years, and I'm probably too late, but I have finally stopped
procrastinating, learned how to use the ProDOS MLI, and finished
version 3.0 of ProDOS File Navigator.
I rarely write documentation for my software, much less *good*
documentation, but I think this software is so deserving of it that I
have included complete documentation, covering everything from how to
start it and use each individual command, to writing programs that can
run under it!
ProDOS File Navigator is a very user-friendly utility to manage, view,
and launch your ProDOS files.
(A simple, concise explanation of a simple, concise program.)
Here's what ProDOS File Navigator 3.0 can do:
* Catalog the entire ProDOS file system, up to and including the list
of online disks.
* Display the available, used, and total disk space.
* Lock, unlock, rename, and delete files; rename disks.
* Create new subdirectories.
* Display information on a file.
* Change a file's file and/or auxiliary types.
* Copy files through copy and paste commands.
* Launch SYS, BIN, and NCF (Navigator Command File) files.
* View lo-res graphics, double lo-res graphics, standard hi-res
graphics, and double hi-res graphics files.
* View and scroll through text files up to 9.75K, with word wrap.
* Display the mnemonics for all 137 currently defined ProDOS file type
codes.
* Display GS/OS mixed-case file names.
