Oi!
There is a dos 1.xx-clone made by a russian that supports directories. Don`t remember the name, though, but it works on MSX 1.

I hear Padial's latest mappers auto-initialize to MSX2 defaults, so they can be used in MSX1 without problems!

Well The trial I made was with padial 's mapper .

If I recall correctly, the MSX-DOS 1.x sub directory support consisted of a small patch program to enable the trick on a disk and some command line tools to make, remove and change directories. I may have it somewhere, though never tried it since I got MSX-DOS 2.x already. |

Misix might sound right.
Anyway, it worked in just the same way as Dos2 dir`s.

I just checked my personal FTP site and it seems I've put it online. It's a backup from a quite large bulletin board system of which I was a co-sysop for the MSX section, so the file is still in .pma archive format.

I does not work with me when typing CHDIR/MKDIR commands a strange string appears:
"NO <strange symbols , i think should be japanese with kanji irom>"
I guess something is missing , the msxdos.sys and command.com are the 1.03 since
they are not in the package. The setdir.sys files contains a list files , it does not look
like a binary file also. Since I dont read dutch the help file is a bit hard to use for me...
Maybe some tsr or file missing ?

First you have to run Label.com - Type Label followed by a name for the disk
If you do not run this first it does not work!
Now you can create dir's

hmmm.... strange that you have to label the disk first. I wonder where this limitation comes from.

IT's been a long while since we heard from Jon de Schrijder. I'm still thinking several of the improvements for the Sunrise ATA-IDE/CF interface would be very nice to implement. Maybe the time has come to see if someone else can take things over? (Or get Jon de Schrijder back in action, preferably?)
