Hello,

  I was wondering. Is there a software reset available on the ST? I find
it disturbing to have to do a hardware-reset (that little switch in the
back) every time I reset my 520. Sometimes I just wanna free up memory
or re-boot desk accessories. But I am forced to reset it in hardware.
Maybe someone could write a short program that did the job. I dunno.
Or place it in a desk ACC. My ole c64 ONLY had a software reset, now
my ST ONLY has a hardware reset. Any ideas and info is appreciated.
Feel free to reply privatly or on the network.
