I have added your suggestions. Partitions are now called RGBDOS Drives, and
I have added a direct input box "Go to RGBDOS Drive" to the Disk Menu to
quickly navigate to a desired partition.

Walt,

Just tried your program to the extent of seeing how it read .vhd disks. A
very good start, but I've some suggestions for the action of Disk/Partition.
There really ought to be a faster way to select a Disk Basic drive on a .vhd
disk formatted for RGBDOS than scrolling through all 256 RGBDOS drives.

Also how about calling the partitions "RGBDOS Drive #" instead of "Partition
#" 
as that leaves nothing to the imagination of the user.

Robert
