Look for a location that always has a 1 in it.

I figured it out. For the end of a directory in EOS 7 the first unused entry is 11 nulls and ends with byte value of 1.

Did you figure out were the catalog end marker was?

Hmmm I’ll have to look at it and see if I can determine how to detect the directory end

I can't take the credit, who ever did EOS7 removed it. It's just not needed. Load the Desk Top boot SmartBasic 1 with SmartDSK OS and check the catalog.

I wonder what James was doing here. There are 4 valid files and then nothing but empty entries. Did he remove the BLOCKS LEFT entry?
