I adapted SWAP by Marty Del Vecchio, intended for use in C, for
PowerBasic and called it, quite originally, PBSWAP. I made it for PB
3.1, but it also works with the current version 3.2. As a ZIP file
the package is about 87Kb in size. You can download it from BBS The
Animal Farm, located in Zoetermeer, The Netherlands,
phone number ++31-79-3512523, fido 2:281/607.
Friendly greeting you,
