[Coco] wdir command?

[Bill Pierce]

Chis & Robert, I've even tried editing both Kevin's Basic09 and McDowell's C versions of wdir to use NitrOS9... No luck so far. Just changing the "cc3io" reference to "vtio" should have done the trick (theoretically), but apparently, in the splitting of cc3io into the vtio, keydrv snddrv, & joydrv, this may have made the system calls that are used in wdir to react differently. I may compare the system calls used with those I use in enumerating the RBF drives in Mshell to see if maybe a new util with the same function of wdir could be written for NitrOS9. It would actually be usefull to me as (from what I saw in both sources) it not only displays the windows in use, but window type, the palette settings, the color settings, the overlays, as well as the CWArea (current work area) assigned to each window.
In the kind of projects I work on, this is good stuff to know :-)
