[Coco] values other than 0 or 1 for byte 14 of decb dir entry

If, as Luis says (I think), Disk Basic treats any nonzero value in
byte 14 as a 1, that would leave bytes 1-7 open for whatever extra
information CoCo Max 3 might want to cram into the directory entry for
a particular file.

Does CoCo Max 3 have its own directory function, perhaps, that
displays more information about the file than a normal directory
would?  Or perhaps there are different types of files CoCo Max 3
creates and the program uses the Byte 14 information in determining
how the file should be displayed when it is loaded in.
