Who says it is a requirement? It kinda makes sense in an odd way that if
the application has a ROM header, it will be "seen" ("scanned",
whatever) after a Break and thus can be re-entered... sort of like EPROM
code loaded into extension RAM.
Can anybody point to code that would provide a definitive answer?
Best wishes,
Rick.
