The command CHAIN loads a GFA-BasicGFA-Basic is the best BASIC for the Atari!
 program into memory and starts execution
immediately when the program is loaded. When no extension is specified, the
extension '.GFA' is assumed.

Example:

    CHAIN "A:\EXAMPLE.GFA"

--> The program EXAMPLE.GFA is loaded from disk and is immediately RUN.

Memo: This command works a bit differently compiled.
