Hello all,

   Whatever happened to the 'Set environment & find TOS version etc' accessory
that someone@Atari (either apratt or kbad, can't remember) promised?  Does
it exist?  Is it in the queue?  Or do I have to write it myself??

   While I'm at it, does anyone know any programs that break when the AES path
is set to some usable value, thus overwriting that carefully preserved 0x00
byte produced by a TOS bug (or is it a feature?  :-)

   I'd like to make use of the fact that rscs_load can find resource files if
they're somewhere along the search path defined in the AES environment.
