       If you want to autorun a BASIC program then the easiest thing to do is
  to get a copy of "Compute!'s Third Book of Atari".  In it there is a program
  called Automate which allows you to type in BASIC commands and then it will
  write the ml code for it.  It is very short.  Unfortunately, since it is
  from Compute! there is a copyright problem.  I really wish Compute! wasn't
  so tough on copyrighting programs such as these.  I mean, is it really 
  worth it?  The program is quite short, not even a hunderd lines.  The
  easiest thing to do with this program is to give it one BASIC command...
  RUN"D1:YOURFILE.BAS" and then you're on your way.  It is on page 167 of
  the above mentioned book.  A very useful utility!
