have DOS plus utilities installed or not? 
Huh?  Have basic, debug and ver is 5.00
I'm better with basic than I am with debug so my solution might
just turn out to be wrapperizing a  basic 'data' section binary file
transcriber.  If somebody could show a real world example,
complete, with debug I'll use that, the transferred file sizes should
be 2X smaller.
