OK, I believe that this program works.  However when I try to run it on
my 520, it doesn't :-).  I have a standard, monochrome, 2xsingle-sided
disk, 520.  No memory upgrade.  I get a smart little box that says:

           --------------------------------


Anybody wanna tell me what's wrong ??  I would look it up in the manuals,
except that the Dev. Kit manuals I have are such bad photocopies and are
largely irrelevant... (Neil, how soon do we get *real* manuals ?? :-)
