Running a Non-GEOS Program on GEOS
Once you attempt
to
open a non-GEOS program on GEOS, GEOS will
determine the type of program and
if
possible, run it. If you cannot open a
non-GEOS file
in
GEOS, boot the system disk from which the document
was created, then open the file.
To
run
a
non-GEOS program on GEOS:
1:
Double-click on the program file icon. Use the program as it is
normally used.
2:
When finished, reboot GEOS so that you can return
to
the deskTop.
NOTE
If you have a
RAM
Expansion Unit, you can reboot so that its
contents will not be lost. Exit to BASIC (by selecting BASIC from the
special menu) and type
LOADWRBOOT",8,1. The GEOS deskTop
will appear.
If the disk you have inserted is normally
run
using the LOAD"*",8,1
command, double-click on the upper left corner icon of the disk note pad to
open that file. (The
LOAD9'*",8,1 command will tell your Commodore to
open the first file it finds on the disk.)
