FEATURE REQUEST: Local Storage on 127.0.0.1

[+David_P]

Is there possibility to add local storage on the Fujinet itself, at 127.0.0.1?

 

Context: Applications can be loaded from literally anywhere in the world, but there may be configuration information that would be useful to save locally (and we definitely don't want to accidentally hammer the original version halfway around the world, where someone accidentally enabled WRITE permissions on their TNFS server).  If a program was able to save its config information to, say, 127.0.0.1/CONFIG/APPNAME/CONFIG.SYS or something similar, there's no need to worry about DOSes and their peculiarities for reading and writing that info.

 

As a secondary benefit, this might simplify porting programs between different systems, as there would be no need to adapt the config routines between platforms.

 

Just a random thought for a Wednesday night...

This is literally why FujiNet can store configuration information in an appkey.

Ah!  I was looking only at CIO; lots more under the hood with SIO calls.

 

So if I understand correctly, each CreatorID can have up to 256 apps, each with 256 Keys.  Thank you!
