Obviously the CATALOG TO LABELS OR FILE program wasn't textualized using a DOS
3.3  version  of the Executioner.  You can find this out if you have a look at
the hex code in the beginning of the text file; it's just the standart one for
ProDOS.   But  it  won't  EXEC  under  ProDOS  because  of the manualy changed
filename in the BSAVE statement at the end which causes a SYNTAX ERROR.  Using
DOS 3.3 the file will be saved (as type "B") but of course the "E00G" crashes.
To correctly EXEC it I suggest:

1)  Edit  the filename in the BSAVE statement from "CATALOG TO LABELS OR FILE"
   to just "CATALOG" (it was actually created using this one as you can see by
   dumping the hex code in the prologue),
2) EXEC it using ProDOS; you will get the BASIC program in a BAS file,
3) Convert this BASIC program to DOS 3.3.
