(I am getting tired of having this happen to me). BTW (completely unrelated), does anyone know what POKEs turn your cassette player on or off? (I know they're in Mapping the Atari, but I don't have one of those with me at college)...

Therefore your binary file on yourAtari disk has all its tabs converted to 0x7F's, etc.... Also, after I copy files (I used "util /b /w filename a:") I get the message Invalid path <> --Kenneth Arromdee (ins_akaa@jhunix.UUCP, arromdee@crabcake.cs.jhu.edu, g49i0188@jhuvm.BITNET) (not arrom@aplcen, which is my class account)
