Hi All,

On the CPC 6128 I remember using a utility which could be background loaded like an RSX and then allowed you to load a program, use a special key combination and load another program. You could then use the special key combination to switch between them even with the two programs running. I have the feeling it only worked with Basic programs and it would have been on an Amstrad Action cover tape as I got most of my utility software that way.

If anyone knows it's name or where I can get it my current obsession with it may be quenched. Thanks.
