The preceding command sets MYFILE.TEX to Read-Write with the
Directory (DIR) attribute.
Set Drive Attribute
Syntax: SET {d:} [RO]
SET {d:} [RW]
Explanation: The preceding SET commands set the specified drive to Read-Only or
Read-Write.
If a drive is set to Read-Only, PIP cannot copy a file to it, ERASE
cannot delete a file from it, RENAME cannot rename a file on it. You
cannot perform any operation that requires writing to the disk. When
the specified drive is set to Read-Write, you can read or write to the
disk in that drive. If you enter a CTRL-C at the system prompt, all
drives are reset to Read-Write.
Example: A >SET B: [RO]
The preceding command sets drive B to Read-Only.
Assign a Label to the Disk
Syntax: SET {D:}[NAME = labelname.typ]
Explanation:
The preceding SET command assigns a label (name) to the disk in the
specified or default drive.
CP/M 3 provides a facility for creating a directory label for each disk.
The directory label can be assigned an eight-character name and a
three-character type similar to a filename and filetype. Label names
make it easier to catalog disks and keep track of different disk directories.
The default label name is LABEL.
