XL includes all 87 overlays, BASIC.SYSTEM, INTBASIC.SYSTEM and a DEMO
folder sorted by kind of file. The 800K edition has the same tools without the demonstration
corpus. The 140K edition is self-contained; its menu lists available tools,
without asking for the former FILES/MEDIA/DISKTOOLS/DEVTOOLS disks.
All ProDOS editions need 128 KB and 80 columns. The choice is enhanced or
not: the enhanced XL is for an enhanced IIe, a //c or a IIgs; every other
ProDOS image runs on any IIe. Mini is a separate DOS 3.3 program for the 48 KB Apple II+.

software) and INTBASIC.SYSTEM v0.9 by Joshua Bell
