Yet Another ProDOS Patch To Attempt...

[jonINTERNETrelayCHAT@napaVALLEYnet.CLARInet (Jon Bettencourt)]

Has anyone succeeded at patching ProDOS so it can use non-ProDOS file
names? You know, the file names that begin with periods or numbers,
contain lowercase letters, spaces, and/or punctuation? GeOS can do it,
Apple II Disk Manager can do it, but ProDOS can't. I can't access a file
named ".403FORBIDDEN" and cataloging files with lowercase letters bombs
it.

If it makes any difference, it's ProDOS 8 and version 2.0.3.
