blist -- list a BAS file in ASCII (EXTERNAL) [v1.2]
syntax: blist <pathname> [-w <integer>]
ex: blist this
como &;blist ?:bas -w70
como edit.this;blist myprog
List a BAS file in readable form. Wildcards are allowed.
Intended for redirecting to a TXT file to allow editing with
a word processor. The edited file can then be EXECed in
BASIC.SYSTEM, turning it back into an Applesoft program
which can be SAVEd and RUN.
The -w option specifies the wrap margin. 'blist' will start
a new line and indent 6 spaces when this margin is hit, or
when a blank is printed within 10 columns of the margin.
If you are using 'blist' to send a listing to your printer,
you may need to use -w to prevent long lines from overprinting
themselves.
Version 1.2 fixes a spacing bug in REM and DATA statements that
didn't begin with a blank.
