 Re: CBM-Command V2.3 Released

IMHO it is the most useful program. How to copy files without it?

[edit]
I have to add that this program has very good sequential file reader.

However I have also to write about several problems.

1) It is very slow. It is slow even with the emulator's 700% speed. Why to reread a directory so often? 24K is enough for table with 1000 directory entries - it is more than two D81 disks! The Plus/4's version may try to find this 24K or even more and to read all directories to RAM. ;-) I can add that '+' and '-' commands reread directory even in the case when they show the same files. :-(

2) What is the new horizontal panels for Plus/4 for? They leave much of empty space on screen and show less files. :-(

3) Version 2.3 has became incompatible with plus4emu when it emulates disk over directory. Version 2.1 works with this emulator in this mode. BTW yape and Forever_Plus4_Emulator (+4forever?) work fine in this mode with new version of CBM Command.

4) How to get Shift-^ at Plus/4? It is shifted 0!
