[Coco] Ghana Bwana on my Coco3 not working but ok on Coco2

[Ghislain Harvey]

Thanks again Robert for those very valuable info.
When you wrote dski$ do you mean dskini?
Because dski$ and MID$ are not real command. (give FC error)
Again sorry for my ignorance in coco programming.
Thanks.

There are several ways but as the patch program shows, you can
DSKI$ 0,34,A$,B$
MID$(A$,106,1)=CHR$(254)
MID$(A$,122,1)=CHR$(254)
DSKO$ 0,34,A$,B$
This assumes the game is in drive #0, puts track34 sector4 into strings
A$ and B$, changes the 106th and 122nd bytes to $FE and then writes the
data back to T34S4.
