A-Shell 6.5 Development Notes

Update several LIT commands to support the increased maximum length of A-Shell-style filenames:

DIR.LIT 3.4(166)

COPY.LIT 3.4(132)

MOVE.LIT 3.4(132)

PRINT.LIT 3.4(134)

ERASE.LIT 3.4(134)

RENAME.LIT 3.4(117)

ZTXFER.LIT 1.4(109)

 

 

 

In addition to recognizing longer filename using A-Shell-style syntax (e.g.with device or ersatz prefix, [p,pn] suffix), DIR.LIT also supports an expansion of the existing /L{ONG} switch to specify the desired display width. For example:

DIR /L         ; display using 10.4 format (four characters is the default extension when using "L")

DIR /L:30      ; display using 30.4 format

DIR /L:50.6    ; display using 50.6 format
