     Having access as I do to an Apple Mac IIcx with scanner and OCR
software, I was wondering what might be entailed in scanning in the 
program listings that appear in the C= magazines for conversion to
run on my C64.
     Not being up on CBM file systems, would I convert the scanned program
to C= ASCII?  Would it then run in that state? (I can down load the ASCII
file to my C64 and convert it to C= ASCII)
     I assume that the C= specific Basic things like the cursor control 
instructions that Run magazine uses in their listings would have to be
keyed in after you get the prog. into C= ASCII.

Thanks for sharing your knowlege,
