Yes, I've heard that too, Art.  But if one has never managed to commit 
that key sequence to quasi-non-volatile wet ram, it can be a puzzle 
you cannot get thru.  As I did 99% of my work in os9 once I 
discovered it, the urge to learn edtasm became much less.

Perhaps it would be good to repeat that key sequence for everyones 
edification.
