YaPaDOS

2 bytes added, 12:48, 27 October 2007
YaPaDOS is patch for [[AMSDOS]] and [[ParaDOS]] that allows to redirect disk access to harddisk. This is done with keeping highest possible compatibility, so only 20 bytes of RAM are used (including 6 used by ParaDOS).
 
== Alpha version ==
 
YaPaDOS is currently in alpha version. So some major things may change.
 
For example base for diskimage number is 10 (digits 0..9), but may be 36 (0..9, A..Z). This will result in 46655 possible diskimages, not 999 as now.
 
Also, as creation of new diskimage gives it a fixed name, the '''|REN''' working on superdisk can be added.
 
All suggestions and ideas are welcome, please use the Yahoo! Groups list of FutureOS.
== Diskimages ==
The '''^''' sign allows to change diskimages in every old software that enables opening any file and not crashes, when the file is empty. No changes in such software are needed to select diskimage on harddisk or redirect the drive to floppy.
