- DMSV version 1.0
-
- Written by Shagratt/LSD
-
-
- This useful program makes DMS verify when if writes to disk.
-
- This is only a patch file, you run it before DMS, it does not un-DMS a disk
- for you!
-
- You must copy the DMSV.Prefs file to the S: directory and DMSV also requires
- REQ.Library in the libs: directory.
-
- To access the Configure menu, click LMB on the DMSV window followed by RMB
-
-
- The options are;
-
- » Verify DMS Writes
- » Verify WARP Writes
- » Quit DMS/WARP on error
- » Use REQ.Library
- » Stop 880 Checksum errors
- » Restore screen after error
-
-
-
- » Verify DMS Writes - Does as it sounds, verifies DMS When it is writing to
- disk and puts up an alert if it fails to write after retrying three times.
-
- » Verfiy WARP Writes - Does as it sounds Verifies WARP When it is writing to
- disk and puts up an alert if if fails to write after retrying three times.
-
- » Quit DMS/WARP on error - Quits DMS/WARP after failing to write to disk.
-
- » Use REQ.Library - Uses requester library if DMS/WARP fails to open the
- archive, so you can select the file you want to de-archive. To force this
- requester from DMS you need to put a Drive to de-archive from so you would
- put "DMS Write Df1:"
-
- » Stop 880 checksum errors - (1.2/1.3 only) Stops the annoying "Error
- validating disk - Key 880 checksum error" and "Disk structure corrupt - use
- diskdoctor to correct it" when you insert/create a NON-DOS disk.
-
- » Restore screen after alert - (1.2/1.3 only) When you get an alert such as
- "Please insert volume df1: in any drive" and you cancel it, you are left
- on the workbench screen even if that was not the original screen you were
- on. This option puts you back to the original screen after the alert.

- data of any kind when using this program, as far as I know there are no problems
- with it. You use it at your own risk. It is freely distributable in the
- public domain!

-
- I have tested this tool with various versions of DMS and DMSwindow, and with
- Skid Row warp, it works with ALL I have tried. If you find any bugs, find
- versions of DMS/WARP that it doesn`t work with, or have any ideas for updating
- this tool, of ideads for other utilities, then ring Pazza on 0427-677463, or
