[Coco] dload subroutines

[Little John (GIMEchip.com)]

You could use the OPEN command to open a #-3 file which is DLOAD. Then use 
the standard file access commands to talk to it like LINE INPUT #-2,A$ etc. 
Then after your done CLOSE #-3. I don't know how reliable this is and DLOAD 
only exists on the CoCo 1 and 2 - it was removed from the CoCo 3 - executing 
DLOAD on the coco3 performs a warmstart (or coldstart if you store a 0 at 
address 113).

Color BASIC Unravelled should provide you with most of the details if you 
examine the code for DLOAD.
