[comp.sys.apple2] Basic.System 1.4.1

throoph@jacobs.cs.orst.edu (Henry Throop) (01/17/91)

Does anyone know what the changes are from Basic.System 1.4
to 1.4.1?  I noticed that the MON command (enter monitor - saved
a whopping _5_ keystrokes every time) doesn't seem to exists any
more - are there other significant changes?

try MTR.

I believe it was only a bugfix release.

I always thought that it was MTR! I'm not sure if MON worked in Basic.System
1.4, but MON used to stand for a different kind of monitor in DOS 3.3.
MON C,I,O (or MONICO) would display all commands sent to the disk, and the
input and output that takes place. It was pretty neat, but it didn't work
if trace was on.

Anyways, try MTR instead.
