Creating Directories
As stated above, you can create directories for organizing your K2600 Þles, whether you are
using SCSI or ßoppy disks. You can create directories on any disk formatted by a K2600, K2500,
or K2000.
Directories appear in the normal Þle list with the indicator (dir) to the right of the directory
name.
There are two ways to create new directories.
¥ Press the NewDir button while on the Disk-mode page
¥ Press the NewDir button during the Save dialog.

Pressing >>End will take the cursor to the last character in the name. The Choose button allows
you to grab a Þlename from the current disk (see the discussion of Þle-name grabbing, in More
Features of the Save Dialog on page 13-28). Otherwise, the name will default to either NEWFILE
after a powerup, or the name will be that of the most recent Þle saved or loaded. Once you
choose a name to start with (or the default), you can edit the name using the Left and Right
