I didn't try to decode the compiler, but I did try the uudecode basic program
on a 7500 byte Atari binary file I had on my UNIX machine and it worked fine.
I uuencoded the file on the UNIX machine, changed the ascii new-lines to
atascii EOLs, downloaded the file using x-modem, and uudecoded it, and it
worked perfectly.

> 2) What DOS/s does the compiler run with?

I have a different copy of the compiler and it works fine with Atari DOS,
and would expect it to work with the other flavors of DOS also.

> 3) Is there any documentation to go with the compiler?

I have a copy of the documentation posted earlier for the compiler if you
need it.

> 4) Does the compiler try to determine if the machine is 130XE with extra memory?

The compiler only uses the standard bank of XL machines and does not use the
extra banks of a 130XE or 256K XL.
