-*-save,fill,indent:0,fillw:70-*- IBMREAD - A program to read IBM-PC format disks =============================================== by Robert Heller Synopis: IBMREAD sourcedrv outprefix [textflag] IBMREAD is a program that will read IBM-PC format disks on a Sage II/IV or Stride 400 series. Sourcedrv is a CP/M-68K drive which maps to either of the floppies. Outprefix is used as a prefix for the output files - should be a drive letter followed by a colon. Textflag is an optional flag to indicate whether the files are text files or binary files - if blank (omited) the files are treated as binary, that is no newline conversions are done. If textflag is non-blank, then the files are treated as text files and newline conversions are done. Recompilation notes: IBMREAD uses modules from SAGESUBS.LIB (SUBSLIB.LIB) - uread and uwrite. Multi-User notes: In order to run IBMREAD under the Multi-User BIOS, the running task must be allowed to make configuration changes. That is, option B under "User Capabilities" must be on. If it isn't, ibmread will abort with a status code of -14 while trying to set the IBM disk configuration.
