- Documentation for MAKE version 2.7 released 4/10/88
-
- The assembled COM file in this library has been created from the
- supplied source code with the ZCPR3 and WHEEL equate set to "FALSE".
-
- This primary purpose of this program is to allow one to change the user
- number of designated files on a designated drive to a different user
- number. This is carried out without copying the files and then deleting
- the original files, rather, the user number tag in the disk directory is
- simply changed to reflect the new user number. The program also has
- options to set files attributes of read-only, read-write, system, and
- directory, as well as archive or non-archive. Files can also be erased
- or unerased.
-
- The code assumes that the track and sector are set by the BDOS search
- functions and uses a simple BIOS write to update the directory. Before
- using this program, test it on a garbage disk to make sure that it works
- with your system.
