[Coco] Obfuscated BASIC Code

Hi,

I remember printing out one listing and then asking for help, Luis Fernández responded and did the rest.

I was not real happy having a non english speaker do the work as I had seen some error messages, but so many other things needed to be done.

Are you saying that you are not getting a good printout of the program or the program's output is bad?

I used EmuDisk to extract the program from the second disk, it is attached. EmuDisk aborts on the first disk but CoCoDskUtil worked.

-------------------------------------------
Using NitrOS-9 the printout of my Hdirect program stops after the very first line. I tried and had to give up. I do not know if VCC or NitrOS-9 is to blame.
