	Can someone advise me how I can edit an IBM BASIC program using a
word processor (such as WordPerfect)? As you know, when using the SAVE command,
the disk file is NOT ASCII.

	Also, how does one issue a DOS command through BASIC? For example, if
I want to issue the "timer/s" command during the execution of my program, how
do I accomplish this?

	Thanks in advance.
