This release of CSAP, ÿwhich should fix the problem with large partitions and
small clusters (i.e. FATs larger than 64kb), still must be regarded as a Beta
release. ÿÿI ÿdo not have the facilities to test it as thoroughly as I would
like. ÿIt has been tested as thoroughly as possible with the facilities that
I ÿdo have and seems to function correctly with both 12-bit and 16-bit ÿFATs,
however, ÿÿthere ÿare just too many possible configurations to ÿallow ÿreally
adequate testing. To the best of my knowledge, it has not been tested at all
with ÿdisk compression utilities such as DoubleSpace, ÿStacker, ÿÿSuperStore,
etc. ÿÿBe sure to backup your hard disk before using CSAP 4.2.1 ÿfor at least
the ÿfirst ÿ3 or 4 times. ÿSince CSAP does work with both the FATs ÿand ÿthe
actual directory entries, a bug could easily destroy your hard disk!

I ÿfixed ÿa ÿbug ÿand ÿchanged calls to ÿabsread/abswrite ÿto ÿsupport ÿlarge
partitions.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
