Any idea where I can find a copy of Block Warden? I didn't find it on the ftp.apple.asimov.net FTP site. If you have a copy feel free to just attach it in an e-mail to me. Or if you have a .DSK image for the /// that you know works. Thanks!
It's just one of over a dozen utilities that come with the free ProSel 8. It's pretty widely available. Here's an early Google hit: http://mirrors.nsa.co.il/apple_ii/images/utility/disk_utils/ It's a great customizable Apple II program selector, plus a large set of utilities--handy for everyone, indispensable for hard disk users. -michael NadaPong: Network game demo for Apple II computers!
