Cool...  Any plans on assembly version?

Ok, so you can do prodos operations on a remote drive..

I think there may be a ton of value in reading it.

This would make the server locked in an Applesoft loop, waiting/
processing requests?

The client...  a RUN command would end it(the client), correct?  I
guess BRUN would probably RTS to the executing BASIC program, as long
as it didn't get overwritten by the B file..

Does prodos have to be resident in the clients RAM?

What are your plans for using the file server?
