MODEL
II
TRSDOS
For
example, suppose you have a file named SECRETS/BAS. and the file has
MYNAME
as
an
update and access word. Then this command:
hIll
SECRETS/BAS
will not cause
the
file to be Killed.
You
must include the password MYNAME
in
the
file specification.
Suppose
a file
is
named
DOMAIN/BAS
and has blank passwords. Then the
command:
hIll
DOMAIN/BAS. GUESS
will
not
be
obeyed, since GUESS
is
the wrong password.
Diskette Names
When
you reference a file like TESTER/BAS:3, TRSDOS will use whatever
diskette
is
in drive 3. However, if you add a diskette name to the file specifica-
tion,
TRSDOS
will first check to see that the correct diskette
is
in
the drive.
(You
assign diskette names during the Format
or
Backup process.)
Note: Only the
COpy
command looks
at
the
diskette
name
and
checks
that
the
correct diskette
is
inserted. The other commands ignore
the
diskette name.
A diskette
name
consists
of
from 1 to8letters and numbers inside parentheses
( ).
When
you include the diskette name in a file specification, you must
also include the drive number
:d.
Otherwise the diskette name will be ignored.
For
example:
COPY
REPORT/TXT:0
TO
REPORT/TXT:3(TXTFIlES)
tells
TRSDOS
to copy the file
REPORT/TXT
on drive 0 to anotherfile named
REPORT/TXT
on
a diskette named TXTFILES, using drive
3.
