Your "save @:test",8 is equivalent to save "@0:test",8, which is something different on dual-disk drives (the first version writes to the last accessed drives, your version always to drive 0). > and as always, the "@" introduces quirky behavior (its so buggy that it may > even result in data loss) and shouldnt be used in any case IMHO Yes. That's true for the 2031, 1540, 1541, 1570 and 1571 drives. Later versions of the 1541 have it fixed (I am not sure about the 1571 with -05 ROM), as have drives with JiffyDOS - but I would not rely on it in non-IEEE world (and even there, the 2031 is IEEE but his this problem). > - however, > since like 0: it is interpreted/handled by the drive, i dont like the idea of > adding extra code to filter it out either :) Same here.
