[comp.sys.apple] Applewriter Patch for GS

STEIN@UCONNVM.BITNET (09/27/87)

  The following patch allows one to use the 128K Prodos Apple Writer version
2.0 on the Apple IIGS.  (In order to not follow in the footsteps of Joe Biden,
I must attribute it to Don Lancaster as presented in the February 1987 issue
of Open Apple.)
  from the Monitor, enter
BLOAD AWD.SYS,A$2000,TSYS

  verify that 4DB0 is A0, then
4DB0:60

  verify that 4F67 is 01, then
4F67:10

  verify that 4F6E is 31, then
4F6E:13

BSAVE AWD.SYS,A$2000,TSYS

  According to Open-Apple, this patch makes Apple Writer treat the IIgs as
if what appears to be a Super Serial Card is a third party interface card.
It also disables the control-O J set modem/printer interface option.

  What I don't understand is why the file length isn't specified in the BSAVE
command.
