Toggle B

I guess that's my old program...

Actually it doesn't check anything, just toggles the bit for
the drive B in the TOS drive bitmap.  So you can set the bit
again by rerunning the program.  Unfortunately MiNT doesn't
know about that then though.

Better would be to add drive bitmap re-reading and u: vfs
recreation to MiNT.  Then one would be able to do disk*drive*
mounts on the fly :-).


Btw.  The disk on which my programs were has chrashed (and garantee is
void) so none of the packages mentioned on my WWW pages are available
through the links on the pages. Try the

page instead if you want to get the latest W window system.
