Of course! my mind was wandering elsewhere: I was only looking for this
info on the Basic09 Manual and had not considered looking in the OS9 ones;
my OS9L1 colorful books are stored far away from me and I was too lazy to
dig up the big LII binder... sure enough there it is the required info,
thanks for the heads up!
Now onto some Basic09 experimenting :-)
