The DLOAD command transfers performs the same function as LOAD, but is
specifically designed for a Commodore disk unit using BASIC 4.0. The device
number will default to 8 if not specified. The drive number will default to 0 if
not specified.
DLOAD"fn",Ddr
A successful LOAD or DLOAD closes all open files. Therefore you must
give a new OPEN command in order to continue communicating with the
disk drive command and error channel.
VERIFY
The format for VERIFY command is:
VERIFY"dr:fn",8
This command verifies that a file named "fn" stored on a floppy disk contains
the same information which is stored in the computer's memory. This command
is the same as the VERIFY command used with the tape cassette. Once again, dr
refers to the drive number (zero). Note that the format for this command speci-
fies that the drive number be placed before the filename. The 8 at the end of this
command is the device number (8 for disk, 2 for second tape cassette).
STEP 1: Write a short program and save it on a diskette in drive 1 under the
name "test" using the procedure described under the section on
SAVE.
NOTE
It is important that the program in memory is not
changed in any way between the save and verify
operations.
STEP 2: Type: VERIFY"0:TEST",8
Once verified, the screen displays:
VERIFY "0:TEST",8
SEARCHING FOR 0:TEST
VERIFYING
OK
READY.
If a verify error occurs reSAVE the program and verify it again.
VERIFY may also be used in the format:
VERIFY"*",8
