[Coco] CoCoNet beta release

[Bob Devries]

DLOAD is a part of the original EXTENDED COLOR BASIC ROM, and is not part of 
OS-9/NitrOS-9.

Having said that, I'm sure it's possible to create a new and better version 
od the DLOAD built-in command. There have been articles in Colour Computer 
related magazines about the protocol, including source code for the 
programme required on the host computer/file server.
