MM> First of all, thanks to the author (Konstantin Afendikov) for his work and

MM> addition of DN with new functions and expansion of its capabilities for friends
MM> Spectrum, that is, so that he can carry out all his manipulations with files with

MM> Shalaev (I personally owe everything to them, of course).
ZXTOOLS has many disadvantages: there is no MOVE function, PG UP and PG DN are buggy (i.e. they work
only 1 time), with TAB you go to the beginning of the directory every time, instead of
staying in the old place...
And Shalaevsky The emulator is good, if only it had access to both the trd and the disk (I would really like it), the ability to rip out pictures and a built-in STS-type monitor. If you wish, you could also add a magic button. That would be really ideal.emulator.
PS: What I love about ZXTOOLS is their ability to really screw up
trd guys! Those. if there is no more space in trd, and you write a file there, then
no message is issued, everything is OK. True, then this TRD does not read
the emulator, and the same ZXTOOLS does not even see it! ;)
Hasta la vista! With God's blessing, Novikov Sergei AKA Spirit/STEP.
