-
- * ═OVE FILENAMES TO ANY POSITION
-
- * ╙ORT DIRECTORY ENTRIES
-
- * ╨ACK DIRECTORY ENTRIES
-
- * ╔NSERT DIVIDERS, REMARKS OR BLANK ENTRIES INTO DIRECTORY
-
- * ├HANGE OR RESTORE BLOCK SIZE OF FILES
-
- * ├LOSE "SPLAT" (UNCLOSED) FILES
-
- * ├HANGE FILETYPES
-
- * ╠OCK OR UNLOCK FILES
-
- * ┼DIT DISKNAME AND ╔─
-
- * ╙OFTWARE WRITE OR UNWRITE-PROTECT A DISK
