SORTDISK


Recommended Posts

Sometimes it's handy to have the files on your disks arranged alphabetically.  SORTDISK is a program which will permanently sort your files in ascending order.

 

Each file on the disk is assigned a file number which is based on its location in the directory.  The first file is assigned file number 0 and so on.  The file number is stored in each fiile's data sectors.  So if you sort the directory, you must read every data sector for each file and rewrite the file number.

 

SORTDISK is a utility which will sort the directory and correct each file's data sectors.  Simply place the disk to be sorted in Drive 1 and run SORTDISK.  I hope you find this utility useful.

Oops, sorry about that.  This version has been corrected.  Also it contains all the INCLUDE files that you need to assemble it.

 

SORTDISK works with Atari DOS and DOS XL on both single and double density disks.  Also, I recently uploaded a version of DOS called DOSCD.  It works with that as well.
