[Coco] wdir command? A FIX

[Bill Pierce]

Robert, you are correct as usual.... BUT... you made a mistake.
The next-to-the-last change "xxlonglinexx count=4" and "xxlonglinexx count=5" are backwards. The "new" should be the "original".

After making that change, it work perfectly. Now to make the same mods to the C code. The only thing I missed in my attempt was the above "count" change which apparently was making it go off into lala land :-)
