Here's a simple way to do it... First, load the file into the C-64's memory.
Then, open a SEQ file on the disk by typing: OPEN 8,8,8,"text,s,w". then,
type: CMD 8:LIST:PRINT#8:CLOSE8 (you might have to type the print and close
statments on another line.). You should now have the PET-ASCII representation
of your program in the SEQ file.  You'll probably have to convert it to regular
ASCII, but that shouldn't be to much of a problem.

Also, there is an excellent terminal program that is well suited for just these
kind of operations.  It's called BOBSTERM PRO.  It has the facility to convert
from/to ASCII, PETASCII, and BASIC program files.  you can also edit the files
no matter what format they're in.  I didn't mean this to be an advertisment,
but it sounds like this is just what everybody is needing.
                                                                Rex.
