If  you  are anything like me, well then you really dislike ever having to
 swap  disks,  and then adding insult to injury, having to load and run the
 program from CBM's sys.                                                   
                                                                           
 One  alternative,  I  quess,  is  GEOS128,  but  that  is sorta confining,
 limiting you to their parameters.                                         
                                                                           
 Another,  and  more  elegant  solution, especially for those with multiple
 drives (I use 4), is to set up a series of menus from which you select the
 programs you wish to run.                                                 
                                                                           
 Now,  even  with  4  drives  it  is  necessary to disk swap, and the menus
 painlessly  lead  you  through the process. For example, what to swap when
 running  from  the CP/M sys, running 64 mode programs, etc.  The important
 thing  is to put on the main menus, and have in your drives those programs
 that  you  use most often, and frequently, and then 95% of the time at the
 computer everything you need is only a selection away, by menu.           
                                                                           
 In  my  primary menus, and on four drives, I have, I quess, 30-40 programs
 that  I run often.  These programs, once selected, will then call up their
 related  files, so that all together there may be 350+, and more, programs
 on-line,  and instantly available.  One other nice feature of using menus,
 is  that when your disks begin to carry 200+ programs, you won't "lose" or
 forget  about  what is there in all the confusion, because your menus will
 direct you to the main calling program.                                   
                                                                           
 I've  uploaded  7  related  menus  which  you  can  modify to call up your
 programs.   They  will  download  as one file, which you can then seperate
 into their 7 parts, at your convenience, off line.                        
                                                                           
 The  program  itself  is  a  short  16  CBM blocks.  Download and save the
 program as "menus".                                                       
                                                                           
 Once off line, and to extract the 7 files, you would do the following:    
                                                                           
 But  first,  take a fresh disk, (either #1571, or #1581, whichever is your
 drive  #8) and run your auto-boot program, telling it to look for and boot
 "HAL".   HAL is in capital letters, so if you are in CBM/Graphics mode, it
 will show as graphics.  This is correct.                                  
                                                                           
 In  basic  mode load "menus".  Then do a DELETE 1000-.  Save the remaining
 file as "HAL" to the auto boot disk.                                      
                                                                           
 Next, load "menus", and do a DELETE -1004, and then a DELETE 2000-.  Then,
 renumber the remaining basic lines, removing the 1000 prefix, so that 1005
 becomes  5,  and  1060  becomes  60, etc.  [Don't forget to do a CR, after
 changing each line number.]  Then save this file as "menua".              
                                                                           
 Next,  load  "menus",  and  do  a DELETE -2000.  Then a DELETE 3000-. Then
 renumber lines, removing the 2000 prefix, and save as "menub".            
                                                                           
 Next,  load  "menus",  and DELETE -3000, and DELETE 4000-. Remove the 3000
 prefix, and save as "menuc".                                              
                                                                           
 Next,  load  "menus", and DELETE -4000, and DELETE 5000-.  Remove the 4000
 prefix, and save as "menu1".                                              
                                                                           
 Next,  load  "menus", DELETE -5000, and DELETE 6000-.  Remove 5000 prefix,
 and save as "menu3".                                                      
                                                                           
 Finally,  load  "menus",  DELETE  -6000.   Remove 6000 prefix, and save as
 "menu4".                                                                  
                                                                           
 Now,  you  are  ready  to run the menus.  Just boot the disk, and from the
 main  menu,  you can select options 3,4,5,6,7, or 8.  At the sub-menu, you
 can  select  options  4,5,6, or 8.  At the called menu, return to the main
 one  by  pressing  ESC,  as requested.  (If you try to go further, or make
 other  selections,  you'll  get a crash.)  However, using these selections
 will  give  you  an idea of how the menus run, and call up programs.  Then
 just insert the names of the programs which you run, in whatever order you
 wish,  and re-save the new menu, have menus call up other menus, etc., and
 you will have for yourself a custom Menu Driven Operating System.         
                                                                           
 Once  you  begin to run from menus, you will wonder how you ever got along
 without them.                                                             
                                                                           
 Enjoy!
