[Coco] Finding the Start,End, and EXEC of a loaded ML program

[rietveld rietveld]

Thanks.   This is working for my Tano dragon tapes.   It pretty time consuming but will be worth it to have disk copies of everything

MACHINE CODE PROGRAM ADDRESSES
(a) For tape:
START: PEEK(487) * 256 + PEEK(488)
END: PEEK(126) * 256 + PEEK(127)-1
EXEC: PEEK(157) * 256 + PEEK(158)
(b) For disk: (Dragon only)
FOR X=1618 TO 1623 STEP 2: PRINT
PEEK(X) * 256 + PEEK(X+1);:NEXT
The resulting numbers will be:
START, LENGTH and EXEC.
To find END address, add START and LENGTH together and
deduct 1.
