This is a beta version (i.e., I found all the bugs I could on my
systems) for use by any and all. Please forward any problems,
irritations, suggestions, confusing documentation, etc. to me.

The first several lines of the documentation:

"Summary. The following describes a method to capture a BASIC Stamp
program, in tokenized form, for subsequent direct download to a BASIC
Stamp (the same notion as the BS1's BSAVE, BLOAD). The overall
concept is to use one computer to eavesdrop on the successful
programming of a Stamp by another. An intermediate disk file is
created which can then be transmitted and/or used to program a Stamp
without further need of the Stamp program source code or the
editor-loader.

The provided DOS programs, GETOKENS.EXE and PUTOKENS.EXE, perform the
capture and programming functions respectively. GETOKENS runs on a
computer co-located with the computer where the PBASIC program is
developed. PUTOKENS runs on a computer co-located with the ultimate
target Stamp (or STACHE) to be programmed. The disk file links the
two functions, which may be separated spatially by inches or thousands
of miles.

GETOKENS is designed to work with the DOS and Windows versions of
Parallax's editor-loader. The programs work for Stamp models BS2,
BS2SX, BS2e, and BS2p.

Program capture. In addition to a typical and complete Stamp
programming environment (computer, cable, Stamp), a second computer,
special cable and the GETOKENS program are needed..."


The rest of the description, the programs, and some sample files are
in the zip file.
