Subj: REPLY TO MSG #3745 (CALLING BASIC AND RETURNING?)

 That location in memory normally (after a warm start or upon entering BASIC)
points to location A0h in ROM, which is the "U" in the RUN command in the table
that translates from tokens to commands.  So it is the byte after the RUN
token.  I don't know what to make of it.  The trick works so nicely when
exiting BASIC with the END statement--as you advised--it executes the commands
in the string pointed to.  Neat.  It doesn't work if you exit from BASIC with
the MENU command.  It just types some garbage on the commmand line.  Neat
trick.  I'll order your program disk!!
