That's the one! Fine demo. I have yet to see anything else use &. I use the
buffers to send 256 bytes at a time for my IRQ loader setup (it writes to
position 1 by default and loops back to position 0 after 255.). Most have
just written ~32 bytes using M-W.

Maybe a JMP table could be added? This is something 1581 had and I wish it
was present and extensive in 1541.
