Steve, Thanks for the clarification.
That was my other thought, but since I had never seen a similar message in the TRS-DOS days of "Floppy Disk Only Storage" on the Model 1 or 4P where one could fill the directory table easily too, I didn't expect the REX would notify the user ether, as long as there was no "Unrecoverable" error. I will add that bit of info to my REX notes. Peter <snip> >On Friday, September 27, 2019, Steven Adolf <[email protected] <http://.com>> wrote: >There is a finite length of the directory in flash.
