>OK, so I'm a real novice at this apple stuff. I only use >Appleworks and play games. I bought some game disks from the >Big Red Apple Club. Unfortunately most of them show up (in the >CATALOG command) as type 'I', not 'A' or 'B'. So how do I get them >to run? RUN works for 'A', BRUN works for 'B', ?? works for 'I'? Well, you arent going to be able to run this unless you have integer basic. That is what the file type means, it is an integer basic program. The others stand for Applesoft Basic and B is for machine executable code. If you want to run the 'I' files, you will have to get out your system master(Im not sure if they still give those out) and boot it. It will (used to) automatically load integer basic into the machine and you can run those files with 'run'. If they no longer give out integer basic with the machines you will have to find it somewhere, although Im not sure where. Hope this helps. -- Kyle Grieser (Yuf) Disclaimer - I'm confused.
