- NOTE: Diskcat-5 is written in compiled BASIC with assembler subroutines and
- compiled with IBM's BASCOM version 2. Writing to the disk is done only
- through standard BASIC commands. The assembler routines use only the
- standard DOS function calls. Therefore, if you find a conflict with a
- resident utility or get a bad report from CHKDSK, we modestly suggest
- that you look at your resident utilities, device drivers or anything
- else loaded into memory first.
