DOH!!!!!

Thanks Art!

Do you know of a program that can look at a binary file and tell what 
address it is meant to load to?

Because I don't know where the ROM files in the Drivewire image are going to 
load to.

Al, a trick I use to avoid having to calculate offsets is this:

Say you want to move a file XYZ.BIN that would normally load at $7E00
so that it loads at $2000 instead.  Just issue this command:

LOADM"XYZ",&H2000-&H7E00

Let the computer worry about the offset calculation!
