*opt 1,2 will give you the information you need when loading a file:
*LOAD it to a known free location, and then *SAVE it back out again,
e.g.:

>*OPT 1,2
>*L.CHUCKIE 2000
$.CHUCKIE     001100 0029AB 002700 069
>*S.FRED 2000+2700 29AB 1100
$.FRED        001100 0029AB 002700 0F9

The only problems come when files expect to be loaded into locations
that are not in use on tape systems, but are on disc systems - i.e.
pretty much anywhere below PAGE - in that case you will need to employ
some means of loading it elsewhere and relocating it after loading and
switching back to tape.  There are many ways, and many software
packages, to do this ..
