CATalog
Query :MMEMory:CATalog? [[ALL|FULL][,<msus>]]
The FULL option is available with version 1.01 or higher of the HP 16500C
operating system only. Version 1.00 does not recognize this option.
The CATalog query returns the directory of the disk in one of three block
data formats. When no options are used, the directory consists of a string of
51 characters for each file on the disk. Each entry is formatted as follows:
"NNNNNNNNNN TTTTTTT FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF"
where N is the filename, T is the file type (see table 12-2), and F is the file
description.
The optional parameter ALL returns the directory of the disk as a
70-character string for each file, formatted as follows:
"NNNNNNNNNNNN TTTTTTT FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
DDMMMYY HH:MM:SS"
where D, M, Y, and HH:MM:SS are respectively the date, month, year, and
time in 24-hour format.
The optional parameter FULL returns an 83-character string for each file in
the directory. The string is formatted as follows:
"NNNNNNNNNNNN TTTTTTT FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
DDMMMYY HH:MM:SS LLLLLLLLLLLL"
where L is the file length in decimal.
