This extension was written in about 30 minutes in response to a query on the STOS mailing-list.
When PAUSE is reached, it will simply stop. I have not put a text message displaying why it has paused, as STOS has not yet initialised its text routines.
At this point, change disks, and then press any key.
STOS will now continue to load extensions from the root directory of the new disk. It should be noted that it starts from the next extension, alphabetically, and so you will use up one slot (eg. with PAUSE.EXE, it will start from .EXF)
Important:
Also on this second disk should be BASIC_206.BIN in the root
directory. Without this file, STOS will not load. However, it does not need to
be in the STOS folder on the first disk.
If you want to have your own setup (for function keys, colours etc) you should place the file EDITOR.ENV on the second disk, in a subdirectory called STOS. (dont ask me why this has to be in a STOS directory, but not the rest!)
If an AUTOEXEC.BAS file exists in the root directory off the second disk, STOS will run it on startup.
Actually, not strictly speaking true... I cannot see a reason why it doesn't print the welcome message for this extension...
I cannot take any responsibility for this program - it is provided 'as is', and as such, cannot be gauranteed to work. To the best of my knoweledge, it works fine, but then I only wrote it half an hour ago :-)
