That's because the first thing it does is a POKE 50,128, which 
suppresses output.  ;)  It's truly sick that I remember that, isn't it?

XTRAX 1.1 is now available on a new Web page I've set up to distribute 
my Apple II software of yesteryear.  XTRAX is the only thing up there 
now, but I'll probably be adding a few more things.

The URL: http://www.manual.com/apple2/

I really need to get an Apple II emulator fired up on this machine so I 
can unpack the files and look at 'em again.  :)
