Yep, Alan's program to launch RS-DOS programs from within OS-9/NitrOS-9  
(so you could launch an RSDOS game that is saved on, say, your hard  
drive). I used it a fair bit on my Coco 3, but it was useless on my TC-9  
because you had to use a special boot floppy to bring up RS-DOS (and it  
was non too reliable doing that).
