Question for Allan Pratt (Atari) but is of general interest (?) so here it is
netwide:
Will Pexec() in the new ROMs be able to run a program that has its hidden or
system bit set in the file attributes? I used to think that hiding ahdi.prg or
accessories on our hard drives would stop the students trashing them but Pexec
just ignores them. I can understand that when running \auto programs and
looking for accessories that sfirst() anf snext() are used with some attribute
but I can't seem to get one hidden program to run from Pexec() explicitly.
Am I missing something (that's my insurance statement :-) or is this a failing
in the old ROMs (that's the possible flamable offence :-).

Neil
