Spectrum Avigator.

Hallo, All.
I looked at the program and ran it.... Good stuff. It’s just bad that it doesn’t work without a coprocessor :( I was so confused at work....
Only Roma needs to add something else to it.
As you wrote the work with archives, a full DOS service, like copying,
renaming, etc.
It would be nice if you added viewing of Spectum screens with an internal viewer, and
the main thing is copying files of ANY length into the TRD-shnik. This is very necessary when copying long texts. Otherwise you have to cut them into 65 kb inconveniently :(
There are no further problems on the real Spec. Convert-commander Kovalevsky. perfectly
copies files of ANY LONG.
You know, if your avigator was at least at the level of the Volkovsky commander, I would keep it
as the main file manager. I would even part with my beloved
Dos avigator (but not for good).
And in general, you need to deplete it with some kind of emulsion. in TRD-shnik
you select a program, press enter, the emulator loads and the program starts. What do you say
it’s impossible to do this? I’m sure it’s possible. Contact Lion-17; its emul
is not the height of elegance, but in general it’s not bad.
What do all emuls suffer from? They don't have a BUILT-IN shell like the Spectrum Avigator. I'll give a simple example of comparison. Anyone who works on a PC will understand.
Everyone on a PC, in my opinion, uses Orton-type shells (at least among my friends there isn't one).who does EVERYTHING from the command line) etc., that is, allowing you to work with files and programs. Imagine that when you try to copy a file you need to launch one program, another to unzip it, and launch it using a third one. At least Petin Norton allows you to automate all this. Or, simply, abandon the orton of such shells and work in a bare DOS from the command line. It will immediately become sickening and slow.
This is the situation we have now with emuls :-(((
Then we need to work with the floppy drive, auto-detection of the MS-DOS, TR-DOS format and
for the variety of Isdos.
It seems like everything I have come up with so far. Thanks for the program!

Whoever doesn’t have it, I can give you a coprocessor emulator. 8 runs with it)

As I understand it, a maximum of 255 blocks?
AP> You know, if your avigator was at least at the level of

Level 1.01 promises to be better than the VC and NC level. If only because it takes up less
memory.
AP> I’m sure it’s possible. Contact

I’m already I stuttered here about how programs will be launched from under the navigator - press enter - a command line like d:\zx\trd\games1.trd elite.b
AP> Then you need to work with the floppy drive, auto-detection of the MS-DOS format, TR-DOS
AP> well, for variety Isdos.
Everything sir :)
AP> Thanks for the program!
Yeah. Come again... =)

You can use the utility from Misha Kondratyev 2hobeta.com it seems
the file specified in the command line will be converted into a hobet form. Moreover, if the
file length is more than 255 Speck sectors, the file will be cut along these same 255
sectors.
AP>> There are no further problems with the Kovalevsky Conver Commander
AP>>. copies files of ANY LENGTH.
RK> As I understand it, the maximum is 255 blocks?
Any means any. The length of a file in a convert is calculated from the beginning of the file
to the beginning of the next one.
With all sorts of regards and wishes.
Igor.

No, a maximum of 640 kb, 2544 sectors. This is of course not entirely standard, but sometimes it is necessary. So I want to write a file with a length of 240Kb and I break down :(
I had to cut it into pieces and call it TEXT01, TEXT02, TEXT03, and so on....
Bad :-(( And I have a viewer that looks at any length of texts. It just
loads the file as it is read.
C respect Shor Kan.
