Hi K. Pruitt,

Thank you very much for this information.

I am a complete newbie on Drivewire, save inserting .dsk images into Drivewire slots, and then using the disks on my attached CoCo 3.

I get that you have your files all in e:\coco

So, where would I type the command:  dw server list e:\coco\filename.asm ?  I am assuming you type it on your PC somewhere, probably in the Drivewire application.  Can you please tell me where one types commands like this?

Also, you say the file gets copied into the working directory of the CoCo.  Let’s say that all I have is a NitrOS-9 boot disk in drive 0, and it shows up on my CoCo as /DD:.  I think that you mean the file would be copied onto the NitrOS-9 boot disk, and it would then show up when I issue the DIR command at the /DD: prompt.  Right?

Thanks very much, in advance, for your patience with me.
