What files are on this system? What areas are on this system? What files have been added? Accessing .LBR files :Files on this system There are several programs available to find out what files are on this system. The easiest to use are: FIND *.* and DIR *.* $U0ADL Simply type either command at any system prompt (for example A>). Either program will list all files on all user levels on all drives, including the contents of all .LBR files. It takes it a few seconds between drives so be patient. If you see something interesting, you must first go to that user level and then to the correct drive. If you wish to cancel either of these commands, enter a ^C. :What areas are on this system? To find out how the system is divided up, type SECTION ? All available areas will be listed with a short description of what files will be found in each area. This program will also assist you in moving about the system. For example, if you wish to go to the section NOVICES.FOG, you simply enter the command: SECTION NOVICES.FOG If you know the drive and user level, you may prefer to use the standard CP/M convention. For example, if you wish to go to drive b:, user 6, the two commands necessary are: B: user 6 Either command may be done first. Since sections can be easily moved around the system, the SECTION command is generally more reliable since it will always know where the SYSOP has moved a section to. :What files have been added? To find out what has been added to any section in the last few days, type WHATSNEW This will list the files added to this area as well as any files recently deleted. Each section has its own WHATSNEW file. :Accessing .LBR files All of the disks from the FOG library have been collected into .LBR files. The disk name is reflected in the .LBR filename. For example, the disk -FOG/UTL.001 is listed here as UTL#001.LBR. If you are attempting to access this file in any way, please remember that you must use the correct filename. To see the contents of a .LBR file, you may use either the DIR or the TYPE command. For example: DIR UTL#001.LBR $L or TYPE UTL#001.LBR If you wish to see the contents of all the .LBR files in a section of this system, only DIR will do the job. The command would then be: DIR *.LBR $L If you wish to see the directory of all the .LBR files on all drives and all user levels, the command would be: DIR *.LBR $U0ADL If you wish to read a file contained in a .LBR file, you should use the TYPE command. For example, to read the DISK.DOC on -FOG/UTL.001 (found on this system as UTL#001.LBR), the command is: TYPE UTL#001 DISK.DOC To download a file contained in a .LBR file to your system, use the L command of XMODEM. For example, to download the DISK.DOC from UTL#001.LBR, the command would be: XMODEM L UTL#001 DISK.DOC To download an entire .LBR file, you would use the S command of XMODEM. For example: XMODEM S UTL#001.LBR
