Description:

!SWIRef is a program for converting SWI names, eg OS_File, to their
equivalent numbers, eg 8. This is useful for 2 reasons:
1) It makes programs smaller
2) It can speed up the execution of a program

!SWIRef can convert SWIs in three different ways:
1) Interactive SWI Conversion in the desktop.
2) Convert SYS names to numbers in a BASIC program.
3) Convert SYS numbers to names in a BASIC program.
