Well, the only reason for it is I haven't got 2.0 on my A1000 yet.  So I
can't really test my software very well if I use 2.0 calls...  Besides,
my software is directed at more the general public than A3000 owners.

Plus, it was fun finding it.  I used true hacker techniques, rather than
looking up the function, I sort-of guessed at what might work, and tryed
it.  I was really suprised when it worked (although I wish I could get
rid of the double prompt at the beginning).

BTW: Dumb question which someone from Commodore should answer: What is
the final word on getting 2.0 for A2500, A2000, A500 and A1000 machines,
or is there one yet? (Or is Commodore not saying yet)?
