   What are options for editing a prodos bin/sys file?  I want to hex edit a file   
   and replace instances of '73C0' with '71C0'.  I could use BLOCK.WARDEN from   
   ProSel and block edit the file.  I could use copy2plus and sector edit the   
   file (messier).  Is    
   there a simpler way of editing the file without reading/editing/writing   
   blocks?  Bloading the file into memory using basic.system seems like a good   
   option but I don't remember monitor options for searching?  Any good file hex   
   editors?   
      
   For the curious I am trying to edit some ramworks code to work with super   
   expander E instead of ramworks.  Cards work the same except super expander e   
   uses $c071 for bank switching and ramworks uses $c073.  There are 9 instances   
   of $c073 in the file.     
   File length is slighly under $1700 bytes if I recall.
