Dr. Pierce Utility Disk Documentation

DRP: Custom monitor-SYS49152. Scrolling 'D, M, I' commands and an auto ASCII text poker and much more.

POW: Powerful BASIC programmer's aid that also works with the PAL Assembler. POW loads and runs via POW. See ..POWER DOCS. An Easy Script file specific to the C/itoh 8510A Prowriter printer.

SEC: Powerful sector editor. No hammer on bad sectors and much more. Docs are in program.

DFILE: Dual Drive disk file copy manipulator. Fast, no hammer format.

DDISK: Dual Drive full disk copy of unprotected disks.

XXXXX DRVMON: Select desired load address: BASIC (RUN), SYS32768/49152 C64 and 1541 DOS monitor and undocumented opcode--standard commands and syntax.

CATRACE: View enhanced directory and trace files on disk...Powerful utility. Recover blown disks...won't hammer drive on errors. RUN it.

SFILE: Single Drive disk file copy manipulator. Fast, no hammer format.

SDISK: Single Drive full disk copy of unprotected disks.

SCAN: Display/print 'real' BAM.
      (+) = Data present...may be an old file
      (-) = Empty block...standard 1541 format
      ( ) = Empty block...Bytes null ($00)
      (N) = 2N Error...Real or bad alignment
      (D) = 73 Error...DOS mismatch.

SPR: Good 'ML' monitor-SYS32768. Scroll 'I9000' within program for commands. Boots Super Duper MON.

CROSSREF: Super Utility for BASIC. Lists variables used and locations. Finds GOTO, GOSUB, etc., references. Load CROSSREF then insert files disk...RUN. It will ask for the file name then pull it in from the drive...output to screen or printer.

CRUNCH: Packs BASIC program by removing extra spaces, REMs, etc. Documentation in program. RUN it.

FORM: Check track(s) for errors and/or re-format any track(s).

UNDOC.THRD.DIS: Disassemble and/or trace the thread of normal or undocumented op-code ML files. Runs form BASIC...Load ML at higher RAM and protect from BASIC.

RAWREAD.P: Slow but effective. Reads data under errored sectors. Has option to print.

MAKE-A-BOOT: Auto LOAD&RUN file(s).

SCREEN.DUMP.ML: Prints screen where it finds it. ML file is relocatable. File normally loads to SYS 49171 ($C013-$C0A8). Reversed video and graphics are filtered. Substitute character (*) is at 49266 ($C072)...Offset = 95. Tips...

 POKE 49266,N for other sub char. Use as a standalone module or tack on
 to a BASIC program. See other forms of this module...SCR.DMP.DATA -
 Data statements...REM.SCR.DUMP2054 - ML embedded in REM lines at the
 start of a program. Lines 0, 1, and 2 hold the code. Listing them will
 trash the screen...SYS2054 runs the module.

/MAKE DATA: Use to create DATA statements from ML code in RAM...LIST it to see how it works.

PRO.8510A.SETUP: C/itoh-prowriter. Painless perf-skip, margin setting, pitch, etc. Shows how to program the vertical format unit (VFU). LIST it first.

CHANGE DEV NO.: Software drive number changer -- 8/9 & 9/8...RUN it.

ANTI-BUMP: No hammer on errors. RUN it before loading a bumper (program).
