directory window, you are prompted to press
[Return]
for more
names or

to stop looking at the directory. To return to the

Flere is a summary of the File Utilities:
Lock file
Type
L
to Lock file.
XE Term asks you to specify a drive number and filename.
Type:
D[n]:filename
where
n
is the drive number and
filename
is the name of the file.
Use the Lock file command to prevent you — or anyone else —
from changing, renaming, or accidentally erasing a file. You will
still be able to read the file, but you won't be able to write to it.
Unlock file
Type
U
to Unlock file.
Type the drive number and filename just as you would to lock a file
(see above).
