Okay, but that's only true while running an asm program, as since at that
moment there isn't any edit-buffer opened. During normal operation (prompt,
BASIC editor, etc.) the TIOS allocates all memory for the inputbuffer or
program.

So with a stay-resident interrupt program things are a bit different.
