This isn't really relevant to my comment though since Atari
BASIC is not MS BASIC. Atari BASIC was written specifically for the
Atari 400/800 with a good deal of attention paid to being able to
interact with the hardware capabilities of the machines. Commodore
didn't go to the same level of functionality with their BASIC. MS
BASIC was available seperately for the Atari and judging from your
comment, I'd say that it didn't allow the same level of hardware
interaction either.
Whups, my mistake. :) I guess the wet parser gets to go back for
an updated Caffine Fix Pack. :)
