 FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH
 
  The description of the information stored in bytes 64659-64666 is NOT the
current basic program name as stated in: 
  Tech Ref.; MAP.100.
   or
  Covington's Map part VII
 
  These bytes contain the name of the LAST:
      "DO" file;
        1. typed in at the "File to edit" command in TEXT.
        2. "Opened" by command in a basic program.
        3. typed in at the F2  Load"  prompt in basic.
        4. .BA program EDITED after LOAD: Listed with 3rd letter missing +DO 
 
      OR
  
      "BA" programs;
       1. Typed in at the F2 Load prompt in basic.
       2. Run by the command  RUN"file", either in a program or typed in basic.
       3. Saved in basic
       4. Loaded from disk
 
     OR
   
       CO's: the last
         loadmed, savemd, or runmed 
    
    OR
       
     ANY flie
           Named NEW in NAME "old" AS "new"
           Killed "
           
   
 Also the bytes 64668-64676 contain the "old" in the name "old" as "new"
command. 
 
 Anyhow, I only know this because I had a use for the name of the current basic
program. And alas, this wasn't it. 
 
 DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE THE INFORMATION IS THAT CAUSES THE * TO FOLLOW THE BA
NAME WHEN FILES ARE LISTED AND A PROGRAM IS LOADED??
