   Thanks.  Any idea if there's a manual specific to the PET version?  I   
   tried both petspeed-80col.d64 and petspeed.d80 -- the compiler launches   
   and prompts me for a filename, but after that I always get the following   
   error message:   
      
   disc error for programname:    74,drive not ready,00,00   
      
   Possibly the compiler works only with certain PET models, or certain   
   disk drive models, or is expecting a blank disk in the second drive of a   
   dual disk drive...  I've blindly tried a few different combinations but   
   so far nothing has worked.   
      
   Regards,   
   Tristan
