Subject: help requested for possible glitched files...
being new to my CP/M system, i must do some stupid things at first.
therefore, i accidentally turned off the power to my system while
a file was open. (actually, this happened during an editing session
with MINCE - I don't know if it was swapping at the time). I now
get the following nonsense which I don't understand. When I do a
DIR, the directory prints out as it should. when I do a TYPE FOO.*,
(where FOO.SUB was the file that MINCE was editing for me), I get
a BDOS error Illegal ??? in FCB and on the next line, BDOS function 15.
Apparently, Function 15 has to do with opening the file, but at this point
I get lost. EVERYTHING ELSE seems to be working....
help?? many thanks. Lin@mit-mc or g.cornella=c4f@ucb-arpa
