Where is the directory converted to a PRG file, in the c64 kernal?  What
address?  It has been a long time since I played with the directory i/o
and it seems I forgot that which I once knew...

Also, being new to mailing lists I don't know if it is taboo to alter the
subject line as in NewsGroup replys.  Anyone care if I change the subj.
field to specify the reply content?
