________________________________



          Until then came science -

          In the sky flies a bitch

          Praising to the skies

          Your mother, the Communist Party!

          (The national epic of the times

           developed socialism)


   These things came to a description
light only because of
pressure exerted on the author
Yu Kovalevsky, and therefore express
his gratitude and begin to work
to quote the notorious Max
Otryzhkina (sorry, Romanova)

MAD MAX:

"... Description enlarged and
corrected (now so fashionable)
and the last (and do not wait another )..."


   So, hi, nick! (Hackers
and programmers do not read descriptions
should be - not comme il faut). ...

/ But let this not to agree! First to go vryatli who prosechet 
than it differs from many other 'sohraniteley directories', and 
secondly, And this programm is very angrily reacts to any 
attempt to 'zadurit her head. " 

  Yu Kovalevsky /
... I, ie KAMIKADZE O.B., already
was completely tied up with the program for you and my PROFI, 
forgotten and deserted, almost had collapsed, crushed by the 
monstrous severity of dust, when suddenly, with no

addition, all of a sudden, my friend and
ally Yu Kovalevsky fished
on white light one of my items can and legends oblivion 
(apparently wrongly) and so do not see the light, and indeed

a dozen like her. Why he chose it - the concept of
I do not know because Among the above, there are many equally 
interesting and useful and sistemok prikladnuh (MEGACOPY, 
MONOBLOCKER, etc.). But she came to him to taste (except for 
claims and concerns that can be measured in megabytes) and it 
strained me to this work deed, saying that the user without 
choking my files of, and without descriptions, he still did not

understand (?)

   And so, pitied the poor user,
I'm writing, trying to break your fingers
Exploits powerful dust layer on
libretto and rejoice when hitting
in the desired key from the first time
(Do not forget that skill long
lost, and the dust does not
see the button labels).

   So, speaking from England, "Return of the Living Dead"


   Strictly speaking, CATALOGUE
MASTER - a programm in a series of
so-called safety service,
it provides preserving 0
track with the possibility of recovery. Why is it necessary? To
save directory of the drive from the fatal consequences of 
hardware failures, software bugs and

own stupidity. And so, if
Then something happened to the catalog, and TR-DOS in an 
attempt to turn the disk at once gently According to "Disk 
error ... track 0 ...", then it is possible

remedy the situation through
Recovery 0 tracks if you
its pre-preserved, of course. And you can save,
as a 160 track, usually the normal user does not used, as well 
as an archive disk a file with the "KAT"

(I misspoke - to expand
uses 3 letters from the unused boot address).

  Of course, these items can have
enough - like dogs nerezanyh,
but all that I've ever seen before, it was noted indelible 
stamp of pathology. Some kept track of 159 (idiots!), And 
others could not keep in the archives, others kept Only the 
first 9 sectors, the fourth track is not formatted before 
burning (obviously the authors It never occurred that if

track bent, perhaps bent and the format of the track) and
etc. etc. In short, in all fantasy. Only one feature was
common - none of the files of NO
Preserve any DATA track format! Why? After
at 0 tracks can be all sorts of abominations, like primitive 
defenses, associated with non-standard formatting. Then, after 
the recovery (if non-standard track still be able to read and

record), programs, check out this non-standard, bummer!
To this add the lack of
compression when writing the archive
(Stupidly written many, many
zeros, clogging disk
space) and repulsive
Interface ...

   In general, the darkness ...

   Frightened user? Well, not
tremble, do not take everything so
personally. "Never mind the bollocks", read SEX PISTOLS. I 
agree! 


   CATALOGUE MASTER preserves 0
WHOLE track, including the format
Track (location, size and
number of sectors) and its contents. About non-standard
formatting I can see
following: programm easily
works not only with TR-DOS disk with 17 sectors, but also with
Is-DOS, MS-DOS, PROFI CP / M disks. It allows you to store and
restore the archive on any drive. The interface is based on the 
windowing system with arrow managed Kemston '&

Sinclair Joystick, Kempston Mouse, OPSX Space. Personally, I
used a rat and was happy as an elephant.

   Programm itself is sustained in
spirit of pure American humor,
which, as we know, understand
not all. But there is nothing to be done, as the saying goes: 
DO NOT LIKE - DO NOT EAT! 

-How to use and that means
label (section for gifted)

"The computer does not do what you
from it you want, but what did you tell him
ordered "

           (Of Murphy's Law)


   I hasten to stipulate that explains what all the 
inscriptions, I certainly will not, because even the user must 
be some intelligence, and in my opinion is

meaning only in the interpretation of
which may be either not understood (although the may not be so
understood), or that has
nuances (although the nuances of a).


   Thus, the main menu has 4
team operated
by pointing at them
arrow (indicated by an inversion)
and pressing FIRE.

   And now look at these notorious command:
1. Save on 160 track.


   Full copies of the track 0
160 of the same disk, ie 160
track is formatted exactly
same as 0, it writes the contents of track 0. 160 physical path 
will have a LUN 0, and when viewing the Disk Doctor'om is found 
such a picture: a track 157, 158, 159, 0, 161 (if any), etc.

From the perspective of a TR-DOS - Disk
Error, but if the disk has been formatted in less than 161 track
a TR-DOS out there and not climb.

   By the way, under 160 means the physical track 80 track
0 side. Therefore, the owners of rare one-sided disk drives can 
not be frightened - they have it will be 80 track and 
everything will be normal.



   After selecting this command
pop podmenyushka. Do this,
she asks, and if you do not
satisfied with the drive, then choose
More "other", pointing to the corresponding arrow shaped as 
letters and pressing FIRE, then, and do

what she asks. Then close
podmenyushku, removing from it arrow
and pressing FIRE. Next will
above, if you are, of course
not inserted a disc glued or
do not forget to close the door flop
or not yet invented chegonibud.

   This podmenyushka, albeit with different labels will be 
popping up with different teams. Repeat

its description I will not,
so carefully studied yet
times the previous paragraph. I think - you manage to cope with
podmenyushkoy!
2. Restore the 160 track.


   Reverse the previous one,
ie a full copy of the track 160 to 0
current drive selected in the
podmenyushke. It is important to be sure that the track is at 
160 copy!

3. Save the archive.

Battle piece
Should be fighting leaf
It's the same battle piece!
(Army's wisdom)


   Immediately specified: although archived disc may not match 
the format and standard TR-DOS, but the backup disk must

be a legitimate TR-DOSovskim and
No nails! Archive is
archive, so that the "avoid" and
without fantasies!


   0 tracks stored in the disk
a file containing the data on
format 0 track, and its content is compressed and stored in a 
file with "KAT" to an archive disk. If as a result of 
compression of the file does not become shorter, it is recorded 
uncompressed file. 


   After selecting this command
do what they want two podmenyushki. Then you will be a 
difficult task: to choose a file name. Programm immediately 
propose the name of the file by the name of the saved disk. If 
it suits you, it takes an arrow from the menus with the name 
and hit FIRE. A if not (which is quite possible

for users with a rich imagination,
calling all the drives by one name, or does not name them
no) - the name may change.
(By the way, very entertaining look
names proposed by applets
for MS-DOS, CP / M disks - without
bottle and then not tell
which file corresponds to what disk.) In such a case ought to 
put the arrow on the name and press FIRE. Then you can start 
editing the name as well as in BASICe. Naredaktirovavshis 
plenty, I press ENTER, "and all you will have." 

   ... And here it may be
neuvyazochka: what if a file with the
same name already exists in the archive? Well
What, then you will have
pleasure to behold another
menus of four items to choose who can summing
arrow and pressing FIRE:


   Rewrite - the file (or files,
if more than one) with the same
name is removed from the archive, and
new file is written at the end
archive.

   Rename - rolled back
to the previous menu, edit the current name.

   Add - in the end of the archive file is appended, regardless 
of the same name. Thus in the game appear more of the same name 
files. 

   Exit - exit to main menu
without recording.


   Well, if he named no
no problems, then the file
simply takes the end of archive!
4. Restore from a backup.


   Reverse the previous one:
with the archive disk is read the file
uncompressed (if necessary)
on vosstanavliemom disk 0 track
formatted in accordance with
received the presentation and it
written findings.

First, make that thirsts
podmenyushka. And then ....


   ... Then you will see many, many
words, and everything is foreign. Not
offended, I do not neglect the great and mighty Russian language
Just the same commands in Russian
would be prohibitively long and
not be climbed in any way. And therefore
obyuyasnyayu:

   This is a menu of files. AND
except commands (white) files are present (yellow).
(If files are missing, then the menu you
not see.) These are what are
column in the middle of the menu. You know, the files must be 
named from the Latin for drop caps matching TR-DOS. Files are 
in the alphabetical order and selected

as a team: summed up the arrow and
pressed FIRE. Naturally, all
files may not fit
one page. To resolve
problemischi this is the command:

NEXT - next page (16
files), if any.
PREVIOUS - previous village
(16 files), if any.
CHANGE DISK - Change archive
disc. Podmenyushka pops up, give
her what she wants.
EXIT - exit to main menu.

PAGE - this is not the team, and all
only the current page.


   Once you have chosen
the file you want, he reads and pops podmenyushka. Give her what
she wants, and then there will
what you wanted. The main thing here:
The archived file must match the HOST DISC
! Otherwise, you understand ...


         - NOTICE -

"You can create a foolproof
But only on neizobretatelnogo "

(Of Murphy's Law)

            No comments.


           - CONCLUSION -

"Conclusion - this is the place in the text,
where the author is tired of thinking "

(Of Murphy's Law)


   The conclusion is simple - my programm
steeper than any other similar software applications.
Therefore, to erase all of its stunted counterparts, they are 
'never needed.


   But even writing CATALOGUE
MASTER your disk, do not rejoice
in vain - this is not a panacea. Scratched discs he does not 
recover, they will not recover anything or anybody,

Even Boris Yeltsin. Also useless
bite your elbows and zagnuvshiysya drive
If time does not save directory.

   Now you will be eternal
and endless work: preservation
and archiving. Archiving and preservation. Something has 
changed in important CD - immediately save and archives. Then 
to regret not I had to. And it is not clear that the end

and the region ...

"People of the Asa Bay!

     It's only just begining ... "
(Bathory)


   P.S. While typing this monograph by the term "USER" I 
naturally meant nick male. After all, can not be the same

be female! But, when recruiting
O, I was summoned to the phone,
where he had a conversation with an acquaintance. On the 
question of what I'm doing, I blurted out ... And, Although 
this lady has a computer general idea (of the type

"Such a clever thing with buttons
which all can "), and although I
had to spend a quarter of an hour
on explaining concepts such as
"Hacker", "programmer" and "user"
she suddenly, like a tigress started
protect users, especially users
female, ie, yuzerok, saying that they exist, they
simply must exist!
And not a secretary, who on
IBM or MAC stuffed with texts and
documents, and most real
yuzerki on Spectrume! And, though
I understand that this can not
may be that they had never
seen, all are challenged in my soul
it is sown ... And suddenly ???!!!


   Therefore: If it is yuzerki (hakerki or programmerki,
if they do read the description)
on Spectrume, and if you not bad
are you not less than 18 and not
more than me, then, hell
I would like to see! And then
The only one I've heard of
this opera, so only the EVA, and even
that no one in the eye has not seen, except that only its 
programs from being sold. 

   Kohl will want to respond,
then perhaps, through LOGROS, or
by Eureka Kovalevsky, once
He leaves his phone everywhere. I will tell you a little 
secret: we with namesake. And do not Respond -

so it means I'm right, and you do not
at all.

   Advance warning: bugger PLEASE DO NOT hang out!
(Male, responsive to the woman's name, I am also ranked as 
such.)
