Not sure if this is the place for this, if not hopefully a moderator can move it. I've been looking around a lot, and haven't found many modifications for the C128's BASIC 7. So, here's a couple simple mods I did to the BASIC ROMS. The first was to modify the KEY command to allow showing and editing of the other two "function keys" (SHIFT+RUN/STOP and HELP) By simply typing "KEY" by itself the C128 will show the following: key 1,"graphic" key 2,"dload"+chr$(34) key 3,"directory"+chr$(13) key 4,"scnclr"+chr$(13) key 5,"dsave"+chr$(34) key 6,"run"+chr$(13) key 7,"list"+chr$(13) key 8,"monitor"+chr$(13) key 9,"dL"+chr$(34)+"*"+chr$(13)+"run"+chr$(13) key :,"help"+chr$(13) Notice the last two lines, 'key 9' is the SHIFT+RUN/STOP combination and 'key :' is actually 'key 10' which is the HELP key. Editing the keys still works the same way. For key 10 just use: KEY10,"your definition" The second mod was to 'fix' the 16 bank limit for the FATCH, STASH and SWAP commands. This makes full access of up to 16mb REUs from BASIC possible. I don't have a 16mb REU but it works in VICE. This mod would require burning the two files to 27128 eproms to use in you C128, or just use them in VICE. The files can be downloaded here: C128 basic mods.7zEnjoy.
