From Nibble Magazine, September 1987

(Source isn't online, but files should be present in some online archives. Plus I have the magazine collection on CD-ROM.)

This one is menu driven but from a permanently stored list of paths. Control A is used to add an entry, and Control D is used to delete an entry. The entries are written back to the ProDOS file.

I apparently used this one back in the day, as I found it in ProDOS images on my disks. Not a huge surprise, as I was a big fan of Nibble Magazine.

The complication would be... where do the files get written? That's probably makes this a non-starter, but I wanted to document it.

Yeah, doesn't make sense. Glad I tracked it down, though.
