Ñ.> ÈOW CAN É LIST THE DISK DIRECTORY WHEN USING A PROGRAM. (BUILT-IN TO THE
    PROGRAM AS A FEATURE).

Á.> ÔHIS WILL WORK. ÏR YOU CAN CREATE AN ARRAY AND ENTER THE DATA IN B$ INTO 
    THE ARRAY SO THAT YOU CAN LATER USE IT TO LOAD A FILE BY NUMBER, DISPLAY 
    IT OR WHATEVER.

     10 GOSUB350:END
    350 Q$=CHR$(34):OPEN2,8,0,"$0:*"

    380 GET#2,A$:A=-(A$=Q$):ONAGOTO390:B$=B$+A$:GOTO380
    390 PRINTB$:B$="":GOTO360

Ñ.> ÈOW CAN É MAKE ÓEQ FILES? ÁND HOW CAN É SAVE THEM?

Á.> THE BASICS ARE: ÙOU CREATE A ÓEQUENTIAL FILE BY OPENING IT, WRITING DATA 
    TO IT AND THEN CLOSING IT.

    10 OPEN2,8,2,"NAME,S,W":REM,S,W TELLS A DRIVE "ÓEQUENTIAL, ×RITE"
    20 PRINT#2, "ÊOE ÊONES"
    30 PRINT#2:CLOSE2
    40 OPEN3,8,3,"NAME,S,R":REM THE ,S,R SAYS "ÓEQUENTIAL, ÒEAD"
    50 FORI=0TO1:GET#3,A$:I=ST:PRINT A$;:NEXT
    60 CLOSE3

ÙOU CAN WRITE ANY DATA THAT YOU HAVE. ÉF YOUR DATA IS NUMERICAL, IT IS BEST 
TO WRITE IT AS A CHARACTER STRING. AS X=150:X$=CHR$(X):PRINT#2,X$. ÔO READ IT
USE: GET#2,X$:X=ASC(X$+CHR$(0)). ÔHE +CHR$(0) PREVENTS A CRASH IN CASE THE
VALUE IS 0. ÔHE Ã64 WILL READ 0 AS A NULL STRING "" AND CRASH ON ASC(X$). 
ÔHAT IS A BUG, ACTUALLY. 
 
ÓÅÑÕÅÎÔÉÁÌ ÆÉÌÅÓ: ÓEQUENTIAL FILES ARE MOST COMMONLY USED AS ÔEXT ÆILES OR
DATA FILES. ÙOU FIRST OPEN A SEQ FILE (WHETHER IT ALREADY EXISTS OR NOT) 
LIKE THIS: ÏÐÅÎ FILE#,DEVICE#,CHANNEL#,"0:FILENAME,TYPE,DIRECTION"
ÔHE FILE NUMBER IS ANY NUMBER FROM 1 TO 15, IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER. ÔHE
DEVICE NUMBER IS THE NUMBER OF YOUR DRIVE, USUALLY 8. ÔHE CHANNEL NUMBER IS
ANY NUMBER FROM 1 TO 14 (15 IS THE COMMAND CHANNEL). ÔHE FILENAME GOES NEXT
FOLLOWED BY THE FILETYPE (Ó FOR SEQ FILE, Ð FOR PRG, Õ FOR USR, AND Ò
FOR REL). ÔHE DIRECTION IS EITHER ÒEAD OR ×RITE, WHEN YOU FIRST OPEN THE FILE
IT SHOULD BE ,× FOR WRITE. ÅXAMPLE:
              
              ÏÐÅÎ2,8,13,"0:ÓÅÑÆÉÌÅ,Ó,×"

ÔHEN YOU CAN WRITE YOUR DATA TO THE FILE WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMAND:

              ÐÒÉÎÔ#FILE#,VARIABLE LIST

×HERE THE FILE NUMBER IS THE ONE YOU USED WHEN OPENING THE THING. ÅX:
              
              ÐÒÉÎÔ#2,Á$,Â$,Ú$

×HEN FINISHED WITH THE FILE, BE SURE TO ÃÌÏÓÅFILE#... ÅX:
              
              ÃÌÏÓÅ2

ÎO SAVING NECESSARY. ÙOU CAN THEN READ THE FILE BY SUBSTITUTING THE × IN THE
OPEN COMMAND FOR AN Ò, AND THEN USING THE ÉÎÐÕÔ# OR ÇÅÔ# COMMANDS INSTEAD OF
THE ÐÒÉÎÔ# COMMAND.

ÆOR A MORE UNDERSTANDABLE DIRECTORY, TRY USING A SUFFIX AFTER A FILE NAME. 
ÁLSO, ÓINCE THE COMPUTER WORLD IS BECOMING MORE COMPATIBLE IT WOULD MAKE
THE LIFE OF ÂULLETIN ÂOARD ÓYSTEM ÏPERATORS (ÓÙÓÏÐÓ) MUCH EASIER IF WE ALL
TRIED TO FOLLOW THE FILENAME CONVENTIONS USED BY OTHER COMPUTERS. ÔHE ÍÓ-ÄÏÓ
COMPUTERS AND OTHERS USE AN 8 LETTER FILE NAME FOLLOWED BY A PERIOD AND THEN 
A 3 LETTER EXTENSION THAT EXPLAINS THE FILETYPE. ÎO OTHER PERIODS OR COMMAS
ARE USED IN THE FILENAME. ÆOR EXAMPLE, IF YOUR PROGRAM IS IN ÂÁÓÉÃ, YOU WOULD 
USE THE SUFFIX ".ÂÁÓ" SO YOUR PROGRAM NAME WOULD BE:

        ÐÒÏÇÒÁÍ.ÂÁÓ 

ÉF IT'S A DOCUMENTATION FILE, USE "ÄÏÃ" OR "ÔØÔ". ÈERE IS A LIST OF THE 
GENERALLY ACCEPTED SUFFIXES, MANY OF WHICH ARE USED IN ÃÐ/Í & ÍÓ-ÄÏÓ.

ÏNE NEW PROBLEM IS THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS FOR ÚÉÐ AND ÁÒÃ USED IN

FOR BOTH FORMS OF THESE PROGRAMS ÉT HAS RECENTLY BECOME EVEN MORE CONFUSING
BECAUSE WE CAN NOW ÕÎÁÒÃ ÍÓ-ÄÏÓ ÁÒÃ FILES THANKS TO A PROGRAM WRITTEN BY

ÁÒÊ ÆILES ARE NOT PRESENTLY MADE IN C64 FORMAT BUT SINCE É KNOW THAT
