It goes in the same director as NOS.

Apologies to Phil for that extra "/" that appeared! Don't know where that
came from... I also seem to remember that putting more than one space
between items can cause confusion..

Someone also posted about permissions of 7 being a possible conflict.
That's me putting you on the wrong track I'm afraid! The 4 bit set
int the permissions doesn't prohibit overwrites - it jus does not
allow them unless the 8 bit is also set.

BTW: as far as I remember all this originally came from the KA9Q docs,
which are worth wading through if your using NOS regularly. (The docs
live in Demon's Atari starter pack that most of us must have downloaded
at some dim and distant point)
