I remember using a text editor for editting Applesoft code years ago
but I found that when EXEC'd it into memory and ran it, I'd keep
fixing the bugs while in Applesoft and would then have to transfer the
changes I made there back to the text file listing.  I didn't do that
for long.  :-)


Yes, it's a real regression to change an interactive development
environment into a "batch" compile environment.  This is, of course,
the problem with most "prepass" extensions to Applesoft.
