More Atari Automation

I'm writing in response to Joseph Wrobel's program, "Automate Your Atari" (January 1983). The following program neatly displays your disk directory (in two columns if necessary) each time you boot up your system. Just run "Automate" and enter each line below for each command. For example, command #1 would be 10 GR.0 : DIM N$(17) : T.60 and command #8 would be RUN without a line number. Since "Automate" counts characters, all spaces have been removed, end quotes are left off where possible, and abbreviations are used.
