[net.micro.cbm] screen editor help

kwf@ncsu.UUCP (Kenneth W Fernald) (07/23/85)

I'm currently working on a machine language program in which I want
to use the screen editor in the kernal to input data into basic RAM. 
How can I disengage the basic interpreter so when I type a line like:

100 {something that is not basic syntax here}

It won't give a syntax error.  I guess what I'm trying to say is that
I want to run the screen editor from a machine language program so that
I can enter anything I want to into the basic RAM (assuming I type a line
number).

Any information on exactly how the editor works and how to use its routines 
would be highly appreciated.

                  come to mind?)

Suggestion.
You might take a look at the Commodore Assembler Package, which
includes a screen editor that does not tokenize or run it through
BASIC or etc...
