From Sessanna 14057:
Is there any way to load and list a
SEQ file?

10 OPEN5,8,5,"FILENAME,S,R"
20 IF ST=0 THEN GET#5,T$ : PRINT T$;
: GOTO 20
30 CLOSE 5
Can one program be running while
another program is loading?

From Dow 35216:
I would like to be able to change the
disk ID on a complete disk. How
might I go about this without having
to copy all the programs one by one
to the new disk?
