Copy and print the file SWAP85SF at the end of the volume, it contains an annotated directory listing, typically made by Mike Markov when he was preparing most of the SWAPxx images.

Bob, Thanks for sharing your insights! Turns out that Joe Horns LIF disk archive contains those extracted files, which includes references for many of the programs.

Try CC41!
