After playing around with the Hippo C compiler, I have figured out the
answers to two of my previously posted questions:

	#1 the GEMDOS call create(name,attr) is synonymous with the C
	   system call 'creat(name,pmode)'

	#2 the GEMDOS call open(name,mode) is synonymous with the C
	   system call 'open(name,rwmode)'

Hippo C also supports low level I/O (read and write).  I have found the 
Hippo Operating System (called HOS) to be flexible, predictable and easy
to use.  It is a mini Unix shell that can be easily enhanced with your
own functions.
For ST owners with only 1 drive, I've written a utility that runs within the
HOS.  It allows you to copy files with only one disk swap, instead of the
usual GEMDOS four. To date file copy size is limited to 15K bytes.  I'm
trying modify the program to allow copies of files up to 50K to be copied.
If anyone is interested, I'll post the source to net.sources.
