Subj: M100 RAM DIRECTORY

wasnt sure who to address this to - regarding ram directory access as I see it
being done in UTLTY.BA from library. 3 questions: 1-is there a logic problem
with "GOSUB" from which we do a "GOTO" the top? 2-if looping thru the ram
directory, is the sure-fire flag for "end-of-dir"
   always when the associated mem address = zero? 3-what about files already
"hidden" - would the prgm pick them up too?  it seem
  that the prgm would stop after the 19th file read from the directory.  i
  is there a hard-fast rule that there can be no more that 19 entries to be
  obtained (assuming the builtin 5 applications), even with hidden files? 
thanks. one other question has been bothering me  --  is it possible to disable
the "break" key  --  without doing so, how could the M100 have a software  
enforced security prgm  (password) ? ciao
