It is bad enough that when we list Basic files to the printer that the control characters don't show up, but it gets really annoying when the 825 starts underlining for seemingly no reason. This program will allow you to replace the control characters listed to your printer with readable English. A ┴ will be listed as "(Control-X)" and a ┴ printed as "[Inverse Control X]".
The source file must be untokenized Basic (listed to the drive). For instance, I have just loaded a Basic program into memory. I list it back to the drive by typing LIST "D:XXXXXXXX.XXX" where XXXXXXXX.XXX is the listed filename. Then I run the LISTER program (below) and I use the file that I just listed to the drive - simple, right?
It is conceivable that one might re-route the program for cassette usage, but as always, the time it takes may not be worth the effort.
