To bring this on-topic, I used that technique back in the mid-late 80's in
all of my software that I wrote (for myself mind you...) in Basic09, under
OS-9 on my CoCo2 & 3. I made & packed a routine to do that automatically,
then just linked in the code with the routine with any program that I wrote
that needed that functionality.
