Shell

The listing in this article allows you to COPY or ERASE any or all of the files on a disk. The first part asks you what you want to do in a series of questions. The second part of the program creates a sequential file using the screen channel. This redirects the screen output to a sequential disk file. While this part runs, only disk activity will be noted until the end where the filenames are read back into a string array. The next part lists the filenames to the screen. As you mark files for action, they are converted to inverse video. When you are done, the requested action is taken on the files you indicated.
