For C64 and VIC20, the KERNAL uses 2 * 256 byte buffers (256 byte read,
256 byte write) at the top of memory. I.e., on the C64, it reserves
$9E00-$9FFF for this. That is, reserves in the meaning of: Deletes
everything there with its own buffer content.

Groepaz, if this made you pull your hair, you should have tried reading
the documentation in the first place. ;)

I do not know if this is also true for the C128, though.

Scott, why don't you give a complete example that shows what you have
and what works and/or does not work?

Regards,
Spiro.
