[comp.sys.atari.st] How to know we are in TOS 1.0? -- thanks

First, thanks to everybody who pointed me to the good location:
	((int *) _sysbase) + 1

But I want to issue a warning to US ST programmers:

In article <1903@atari.UUCP>, apratt@atari.UUCP (Allan Pratt) writes:

Do not rely on DATES! The french TOS version has the date of the translation
into french, not the US date, so relying on dates on your code will break
in other countries... (Twister did in fact, it checked the date of the
new US roms, which failed on french ones)

Thanks anyways for you reply, Alan.
