 |Hopefully you've saved me some time.  I'm planning to import F83's file
 |system to Blazin 128, which still uses blocks but uses files instead of
 |using entire disk (I hate the MOUNT command too).  I also plan to add

 I did that very thing with a C128 version of FIGForth I wrote about 5
 years ago.  I used REL files.  Each block consisted of 8 128 byte REL
 records.  It was SLOOOW, but it worked.

 Let me know how it goes.
