KeyDOS ROM can also be installed in the space for an empty socket in Commodore 1700, 1764, and 1750 RAM Expansion Units. All the KeyDOS function keys and utilities are available INSTANTLY as soon as you switch on your C128! Why waste time hunting for disks or waiting for utilities to load? Now you can have all of the following features built in - instantly at your fingertips!
Simple installation in all Commodore 128 or 128D computers and Commodore RAM Expansion Units. Internal installation usually can be done with only a screwdriver. REU installations require some minor soldering.
Compatible with almost all C128 hardware and software including JiffyDOS, The Quick Brown Box, CS-DOS, and even other function ROMs.
20 new KeyDOS Function Keys simplify disk access on multiple drive systems. New function keys perform commands on any disk drive with only one key press and without typing file names! Load or run programs, scratch files, open and close 1581 subdirectories, load C64 programs in C128 FAST mode, batch files (execute commands from a file), type SEQuential files without disturbing memory - all with easy-to-use KeyDOS Function Keys.
Swapper memory management leaves BASIC memory undisturbed! Use any KeyDOS function at any time. Your BASIC program will be waiting for you when you get back to it! You can even use Swapper to keep more than one program in memory at the same time.
