Ahoy disk drive owners! Do you find that having to go through the tedious CP/M operating system when wanting to organise your disk a pain in the neck? NewSweep allows you to set the file status of disks quickly and easily, but not quite as quick or easily as Toolbox. The main menu offers five options: Examine Directory, Modify File Status, Format Disk, Copy Disk and Exit To Basic. The first option, Examine Directory just displays every file on the disk, including those in different user areas and hidden system files. Modify Filestatus has a display exactly like Examine Directory, except that you can rename files, hide them, set the user area and delete them to name just a few of the exciting features available. Both Copy and Format disk, incidentally, do just as they suggest at a reasonable speed. The only problem is that this package works only with drive A. For those with second drives wanting to transfer data from A to B (or vice versa) will need to find another package. If you have only one drive, though, there are no worries whatsoever: Toolbox is an excellent utility, being fast, user friendly and useful. Smashing. AA
