   It would be possible to write such a program; not sure if anyone's
done it. (It would be a fairly quick hack...). If you still have
access to and Apple II, and can use things there, here's a quick
set of lines that you can add to any Applesoft Basic program (watch
out for overwriting lines, and make sure your program doesn't include
some assembly chunks :), and then run it...

1 PRINT CHR$(4)"OPEN DOSNAMES.SUK":PRINT CHR$(4)"WRITE DOSNAMES.SUK":
  POKE 33,33: LIST 2-63000: PRINT CHR$(4)"CLOSE DOSNAMES.SUK": END


    That's it. Of course, you can change the naming of these things
to something that's less of a commentary on MS-DOG, but anyhow :)
