Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Is there any chance to have this functionality soon?
I started writing something BIG and the code becomes too long so it has to be split in a few files on SD. But without this command, I see no chance for that happening. Is there any possible workaround at the moment, probably by using LOAD instead?
Thanks!

Try LOAD filename.bas,R.

From the advanced manual:

  Quote  
LOAD $fname [, R]
Load a BASIC program from the SD Card. The optional suffix ",R" will cause the program to be run after it has been loaded.

...that's for the new MM+ - I assume that is what you are using?

I got interested in the practical use of MM only after the SD support appeared officially, so MM+, yes.

Is SD supported on the MX170 version of MM+ ?
That would be very useful if it is.

As I understand it, there is not enough flash by a long way, to include the filesystem on the 170 and still keep all the existing functionality - hence the 470 MM+ unit.

I had a feeling that would be the case :)
It is amazing how much Geoff has managed to squeeze in as it is....
