Simon,
  Just to clear up a comment you made in your last post, HDSCAN shouldn't
really be affected by the 40 folder limit (I don't do any sfirst, snext stuff
in the program...just cluster tracing using rwabs and then only doing reads...
so it should be pretty hard to grunge a hard disk using hdscan.) I do do some
memory allocating, but the only gemdos calls I use are related to file renaming
and checking free space on drives A and B.  Please let me know if anyone does
find a problem HDSCAN, however...I only have used it on the Atari 20 meg and
the Supra 10, 20, and 30 meg drives...
