As far as I know. SEQuential files and PRoGrams can only be overwritten, not modified in place. You have to create a RELative file if you want the ability to change part of the file without changing the whole. This is a limitation of the CBM DOS in the disk drives. You can, of course, bypass the DOS and write blocks directly, so you could manually modify the blocks containing the data from a SEQ file in place, shift them around, etc. Or even implement your own file system with no such restrictions, which I'm guessing is the usual Commodore+POSIX tack. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@musoftware.de with the string "unsubscribe cc65" in the body(!) of the mail.Received on Mon Feb 8 12:59:26 2010
