You can do this by simply typing (while offline): LOAD "$",8 (Press LIST (Press This will allow you to see the size (the number of blocks) of each file, the exact name of the file (with spaces), and the type of file. The exact name, with the correct spelling, spaces and punctuation, is very important when you reference a filename. The column on the right side of the directory indicates the file type. The only types that can be downloaded from Q-Link are SEQ (sequential) and PRG (program). SEQ files are either text files that require a sequential reader, such as SPRINT or a word processor in order to view them, or they are files that have been altered in some way to make uploading and downloading easier. Note: SPRINT may be found on versions 3 and 4 Q-Link Program Disks or in the "Features" section of NEWS AND INFORNATION under "Auditorium Archives". PRG files are simply LOADed and RUN. See the file "Program Will Not Run" for information about using these files. Occasionally, you will see a file that has an asterisk (*) in front of the file type. These files are known as "splat" files and are caused by a file not being completely written to the disk, such as an incomplete download. You will not be able to use these files.
