Yup, I remember that the Chromasette source code would even cause 
ColorBASIC's (and any extension thereof) to pause at specific points in 
the source, and perhaps sometimes freeze entirely (?)... I don't remember 
very well, but I still have such files somewhere. That's because they 
contain lots of binary data directly in strings, which get expanded as 
keywords and... somehow, sometimes it fails, but I don't know the cause of 
it (I have not read the ROM's source).
