To answer your question on the c64 1541 files:
The directory contains the # of sectors used in the file.  Each sector contains
256 bytes.  The first two are used as a chain to the next sector in the file
(leaving 254 for data) *except* in the last sector, where the # of bytes in
that final sector is stored.
