Maybe. SDIR -f seems to
"-f Tells Sdir to display the "full" description of the files. This is
     very similar to the "fstat" command which comes with gshell
     (MultiVue).
      In addition to the information which fstat reports, this option
      also reports the link count and the segment count. The file
      descriptor segment is included in this count. The segment count is
      particularly useful in determining how fragmented the file is. A
      file in OS9-6809 may have up to 48 segments, 49 if you count the
      file descriptor segment. Therefore, if it has only two segments, it
      is contiguous.
      The more segments it has, the more fragmented it is. The file size
      is reported in DECIMAL and HEXADECIMAL and does not include the
      the file descriptor."

If Bod D. just wanted the segment count, sdir -f would work but based on 
the description of sdir, it won't indicate the contents of the headers 
for the segments.
