ONLINE WAS CREATED TO GIVE THIS TWO FINGER TYPIST A REST. I WAS WORKING ON A PROJECT THAT REQUIRED FREQUENT VOLUME SWITCHING. (I see I'm still shouting from the assembler.) Anyway it fit my bill and is freeware if you have a use for it. Online should be loaded early. It expects to grab a buffer and install at $9600 and will abort if the memory is taken. Online can be used in immediate mode or from within a basic program if you can think of situation where that would be needed. the program alters the ampersand vector to point to this routine. Online as you might expect shows all online volumes and allows you to select one. IMMEDIATE mode: just type & 'rtn' from a basic program here is one example: 10 HOME :D$ = CHR$ (4) 20 PRINT D$;"- online" 30 PRINT D$;"prefix": INPUT P$: PRINT P$ 40 & 50 PRINT D$;"prefix": INPUT P$: PRINT P$ 60 END I modified my startup to include the following PRINT CHR$ (4);"-/HD1/UTILS/ONLINE" Thats about all I can think of.
