• MAN – start file manager
• MKDIR – create directory
• RM – remove file or directory

File manager

It can be used to navigate around directories, start programs, copy/rename/delete files, create directories, and execute plugins to operate on files. Recursive file copy was only added in 0.898b, and in rare cases it does not work.

Monitor

The monitor is almost exactly the Final cartridge monitor in IDEDOS 0.89. Only standard 6502 opcodes are available. The commands are:

• A – Assemble instructions
• B – Bank switch
• C – Compare memory areas

• @ – Disk command
• # – Convert to hexadecimal
• $ – Convert to decimal
• *r – Read block from floppy drive
• *w – Write block to floppy drive

Miscellaneous features

• Auto boot – can load and start a file on reset or power on.
• Custom screen colours – the default blue screen colours can be changed.
• Set the TI$ BASIC variable to the correct time on reset.
• Displays the start and end address for load.
• Special extension for bulk reading and writing of file data

Device support

• Up to 128 GiB, CHS/LBA addressing, up to 16 partitions
• 16 character file names.
• Customizable 3 character file types.
• Directories and soft links are supported.
• Relative files supported.
• Time stamping supported.

Fastload

Supported devices:

• CBM 1541/1571/1581
• Any drive with JiffyDOS protocol (CMD FD)
• Additional support for DolphinDOS

Device support is automatically detected, but can be disabled manually if needed. PAL/NTSC compatible timing. Fast saver only in the file manager.

PCLink

Custom protocol, sequential access only. Supported devices:

• IEC serial bus
• PC64 parallel cable
• Duart, SwiftLink, Turbo232 RS-232

DOS wedge

Mostly the well known standard DOS wedge commands.

• @ – DOS command
• @$ – Directory
• @# – Select device
• / – Load BASIC program
•  % – Load assembly program
• ' – Verify assembly program
• ↑ – Load BASIC program and execute
• ← – Save BASIC program
• £ – Load and execute assembly program
• . – Change directory
• # – Execute shell

BASIC extensions

The BASIC extension adds disk handling commands, which can be used with any device because they use CMD style commands.

• CD – change working directory
• CDOPEN – open CDROM tray
• CDCLOSE – close CDROM tray
• CHANGE – change device number
• DATE – print date and time
• DEF – redefine function keys
• DIR – normal directory listing

• LL – long directory listing with timestamps, and file size in bytes.
• MAN – start file manager
• MKDIR – create directory
• RM – remove file
• RMDIR – remove directory

File manager

The file managers inspiration comes from 0.89, though it was rewritten from scratch. The goal was to have a file manager which not only supports IDEDOS devices, but also works well with CMD and other drives.

Monitor

The monitor was rewritten from scratch, the main inspiration was the CCS64 emulator's monitor, but some command ideas came from FC3/AR7/Vice monitors. The goal was to have freezer style (all registers including I/O editable) and fast machine code monitor which supports illegal 6502 and SuperCPU emulation mode opcodes.

Commands:

• @ – Disk command, status and directory
• A – Assemble
• B – Memory configuration, select RAM/ROM

• H – Search hex/any/text
• I – Dump memory in PETSCII
• ' – Write PETSCII data to memory
• IO – Dump I/O registers
