PREFIX with no parameters shows the current prefix 
PREFIX,S6 sets the prefix to S6,D1
PREFIX/ does nothing as far as I can tell...

Actually, what got me wondering about it is in CopyII+ where you hit
<?> and it scans all the drives and lists the volume names, I thought
maybe that was poss. with a ProDOS command... now my question is: "why
not, Apple?"

Thanks for all the suggestions.
