I don't agree this being a 'faillure'. BDOS behaves exactly as it
should: treat $ as string termination mark. It is in the specs of the
function call, so you've tried something illegal ;)
However, your workaround is genious and shows that you're still the
best and most handsome MSX-coder ;)
BTW. Isn't there a more elegant way of doing a 'locate' in DOS? An
inter-slot call to the bios?
