        Ok, I will.... but I have this problem. I want the program to show
exactly what the MSX would show. 
        I'm having problems with single and double precision numbers. It
would be very easy to just show them all scientific, like
        0.15E+01, but MSX would show this as 1.5.
        What are the rules on this? When does the MSX show numbers as
scientific and when not?

        Anyone ? 

        B.t.w. the rest works, I just have to add Octal (&O, I wonder who
uses this) and chop off leading zeroes on &H.

        Too bad that TYPE doesn't read past the EOF marker which may exist
in MSX-basic files, otherwise you could use it as a filter:

        TYPE autoexec.bas|msxlist

        Greetz,
