Reading the Disk with the CATalog? Query

 

 

This example program uses the CATALOG? query without the ALL option

 

 

to read the catalog of the currently selected disk drive. However, if you do

 

 

not use the ALL option, the query only returns a 51-character field. Keep in

 

 

mind if you use this program with a DOS disk, each filename entry will be

 

 

truncated at 51 characters.
