     The easiest way to untokenize the program is the following:

1) Load program
2) Type the following:

     OPEN 2,8,2,"<programname>.LST,s,w"
     CMD 2
     LIST
     PRINT#2
     CLOSE 2

     What you have now is an ASCII copy of your program on the disk.  You
can send this to the Amiga with a minimum of effort ( Amiga MS Basic DOES
allow you to load an ASCII file, doesn't it? )

     Apologies if this isn't correct... I haven't touched a Commodore machine
in over a year, and I'm sure I'm rusty.
