@thomasadam Well, to be fair, this is pretty niche stuff and my Mastodon posts are fairly quiet affairs these days, so it's not that surprising if it slips under the radar. 🙂

I hope you enjoy the project, it's another labour of love!

@markmoxon I shall, Thank you.

One of the curios for me, is I recall certain programs back in the day, somehow, scrambling the "*L" command -- whereby it would just throw a hissy-fit.

I presume his was done through some assembly instruction, but I was never sure how...

Any thoughts?

Thanks again for all your writing, I'm really enjoying it so far.

@thomasadam Lots of disc games switch to the tape filing system after loading from floppy, so they can reuse the memory that would otherwise be used by the disc filing system. That would mean any *LOAD commands would then try loading from tape, which would appear to break if you were expecting it to load something from disc - not sure if that’s what you mean?

Glad you like the writing!

@markmoxon Gosh, thank you, Mark. It probably is -- although from memory it felt as though prohibiting "*LIST" was more of a deliberate action than not.

Either way, you've given me enough to consider. I shall look forward to reading your articles nonetheless!

Thanks again!
