Compiled TASK NAME Changer — Simon N. Goodwin

Renamed a structurally valid TURBO test executable from OLD to NEWTASK. Name length and field matched exactly; the rest of the file, executable type and 4096-byte dataspace were preserved. Original source retained; only the device prefix was adapted. Documented functional check, not full validation. ROMs not included.
