If it gets clogged up with a huge help file it's going to be unusable for anything else, so it's better if the help file doesn't include the common, everyday commands at all. If that means that beginners have to read the manual to get started then so be it. It's good training. :) Possible solution to meet both needs (extensive help and save space on "A:") and perhaps easy to implement?: First check for presence of SD card in "B:" and if true look for helpfile there. If none on SD, try to open on "A:". So one could have a large and extensive helpfile on "B:" and a minimal variant on "A:".. And perhaps - to prevent possible "name conflicts" with other helpfiles (of BASIC applications), name the file for the "HELP" command "mmb-help.txt"? All in all, I think the idea and the implemented solution for a help file and a "HELP" command are brilliant! And the fact that the "LIST" command also benefited from this is, of course, a nice side effect. Happy Easter to everyone! bfwolf bfwolf
