I presume that on the GS, the old BASIC.LAUNCHER used to simply load
BASIC.SYSTEM, get the name of the data file from the message center
and place it in the buffer, and finally jump to $2000.
I also presume that since BASIC.LAUNCHER is no longer used, the Finder
must know that when it is launching SYS files, it now looks for the
pattern and buffer at $2003 itself, and puts the data file name in there.

I plan on implementing a SYS file that works in this way, so can anyone
confirm this (possibly pointing me at the correct tech note)?
