I'm not an expert in Altair CP/M but I do remember one other aspect. It
wasn't password protection but I do remember the concept of differnt user
#'s. It wasn't complicated but somthing like user #'s 1-8. Once you
were that user I seem to remember only the files belonging to that user
showing up...
Might be a dead end... Just a thought...

Hi:
I'm making progress with using CP/M under Altair32, but I have
one newbie
question since I don't have much experience with CP/M.
The disk image I have shows one program in the directory,
STAT.COM. Running
STAT tells me that there is about 167k free (on a 330k disk). Looking at the
disk image file with a hex file editor reveals that there's more programs on
the disk.
I seem to remember something about password protection on a CP/M
disk. How
do I get around this so that I can see what else is on this image?
It isn't password protection. Files can be marked as "system" files, so
that they don't show up when you do a "DIR". I think "STAT *.*
$DIR" will
revert all hidden files back to normal.
