I have been (for no real reason) crashing my machine while it has
files open for writing.  This is causing the Disk is not Validated
requestor to pop up, whenever I try to delete or access that part
of the disk.

Is there a way to force a validation?  Is FixDisk what I want?  What
is the "standard" way of recovering from such an error?  (I know, we
_need_ an fsck for the Amiga...)

thanks,
dylan
