I'm not sure, since I don't know which ROM is the character one. It doesn't
seem to be an EPROM, anyway. Here are the designations of all the socketed
chips:

UD9: MOS 901465-03 4679
UD8: MOS 901447-24 3979
UD7: MOS 901465-02 4579
UD6: MOS 901465-01 4779
UD5: BE 3.1 $B000
UFLO: MOS 901447-N 4679

My C64 doesn't have socketed ROMs (well, it now has a socket for the KERNAL
after I built JiffyDOS into it, but not for anything else).

It adds commands like "AUTO", "ASSIST" (highlights where the last error
showed up), "DLOAD", "DSAVE", "FLIST" (list file), "PLIST" (print file),
"DUMP" (show variables) and similar commands.

I dumped the ROMs to tape yesterday (four copies) and had my VIC-20 copy
them over to disk (three copies, the last I couldn't read properly). Today I
checked the files, and it looks like the two first files seemed reasonably
similar, but I am not totally sure that the dump was okay because it almost
seemed a bit short. I can't check it thouroughly until I get to Oslo,
though. I need a IEEE cable to connect the 3040 drive to the PET to dump the
ROMs more reliably if this didn't work properly.
