   I know 1.3 is pretty limited, but I can seem to get some of those old   
   programs like "trek78" to run with anything else. Not even TRSDOS 6.2.1.   
   Is there a way to convert those old programs over to something like LDOS or   
   the other better OS's?   
   Another question, is there a memory test program that tests and shows an   
   actual number of installed memory? (128k for example)? Instead of just,   
   "installed memory is functioning normally" type stuff.   
      
   TIA!
