Hi,

Does anybody have any details of the desktop save format?

I have looked at it and played around to the extent of renaming the
dustbin, and would like to know more. For example, it seems that
setting up the colour map has no effect if the CONTROL.ACC accessory is
not loaded, but it must be stored in there somewhere. What about using
it from user programs?

Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Frank.
