Before Extended BASIC, there were RENUM programs printed in Rainbow and such. I expect there's one on a Rainbow on Tape archive somewhere, but don't know which one offhand.

I'd suggest loading it in a CoCo with Extended and renumber there. (Ugh.) This works fine unless your code has Extended keywords in it. Then you have to save it as ASCII so they show up as text in your program and not unprintable token.

i.e., if you load a CoCo program that uses "PMODE4,1" on a Color Basic machine, that line will be something like "!4,1" since it doesn't know the token.
