Barcode -> .raw file project ---- help requested

[Ángel Martin]

The MLDL2k approach worked like a charm (if way slower, talk about slow motion life compared to the CL - I really need to figure out the issue with CLREADER...)

ok, here's the scoop:

- got all programs from Joe's DAT file into a ROM image, "PPC APPS"

- So far there are 62 FAT entries - Note that the program DIAL is not well suited for the ROM format, as it assumes additional names/ph# will be added into the code , increasing so the number of global LBLs. I have only included one FAT entry for it, so the user could COPY it to RAM ad do as (s)he wishes.

- The FAT entries are haphazardly arranged, no alphabetical order, no logical groups. Do you have suggestions or preferred grouping? Suggestions are welcome - or you'll live with what I do.

- Once the FAT is solid all "XEQ" calls can be converted to XROM instructions, saving a bunch of bytes. I won't do that until having a final and definitive FAT, for obvious reasons.

- The code spans to a second page, therefore this is already an 8k Module. There is about 1k free where we could put some of the programs from the Wickes' book - no idea how many would fit or which ones should logically belong.
