Help!  I am trying to rewrite an old Dos 3.3 Applesoft program and the darned
thing gets stuck in several places.  I need help in converting the following
from old 3.3 to ProDos:
the "&" sign - I know this is a call, can another be used?
the "& BELL" to ring the bell
I get an "NO BUFFERS AVAILABLE" when I try to run it.  Can I type "FREE"?
How do I convert "PRINT CHR$(4);"BRUN CODE" when CODE is the program I want to
run?
How do I load binary files?  In 3.3, it was "PRINT CHR$(4);"BLOAD WHATEVER"
How do I type the prefix for the disk on line?

And probably the best question of all - Is there some publication that I can
get that will explain the above?  Specifically the marrage between ProDOS and
Applesoft?  One that will tell me about all the ins and outs of basic
programming with ProDOS?

Thanks in advance for the time and effort of a response...
