[Coco] Questions about drivewire3/hdbdos

Well, I thought I had it figured out.

When I type DRIVE #1, it accesses the #1 drive. When I type DIR, I get a
directory. But how do I load files into DRIVE #1, dir 1 or dir 2 or dir 3?

(does that make sense?)

You use the command

DRIVE #x

where X is the "drive" as shown in the DW3 program.

the regular form

DRIVE x

changes between sections of the file mounted in whatever the current
DRIVE #x is.  if you are using single disk images, only DRIVE 0 will
have any contents.
