I'm trying to write a ProDOS application that will perform some housekeeping
at start up and then prompt the user to either continue startup, or run
'basic.system'

I should be able just to make a 'sys' file and put it before my application,
and have it exit normaly if I want to continue, or run 'basic.system' if I say
so. 

My question is: "How do I make a sys file that will play nice with everyone
else." I read the tech. notes, but they all said to buy a book. (I know that
this info was in an old version of the notes!!!)

Any pointers would be welcome.

				Dale
