Got it, made it, not installed by the make that I could see.  Needs docs/man 
pages badly, the README is very sparse.  And this machines only real serial 
port is busy, with a cable to the real coco3, so that part s/b already to go.  
But with mother nature getting upset, I bought one of Rogers bluetooth carts 
and have that setup so I can login to the coco from here without the long 
cable to pickup surges.  Now the question is, can I shut down the minicom 
session I usually access the coco with, run this, and using the BT circuit, 
use supercomm or vt-220 to actually get the coco online?  That would be neat.  
Humm, how about an os9 version of linx, the text web browser?

Darn, there I go letting my mind wander & its too little to be let out alone.

Hey, better yet, since that would only be useful to me, could one link a web 
page to it so folks could run their own session of minicom into it from a link 
on my web page?  That might be more useful for others. ;)

OTOH, whats new on my coco also exists in the nitros9 link now.  Hummmm...
