[Coco] SIDEKICK beta 1.0

[Luis Antoniosi]

do a

? PEEK(&H150)

This is the hdb-dos MAXDRV variable. Check if is not set to 58.

The problem with 80 column I will kill the coco2 and I love running
from them :) In fact, I prefer running old games on it cause it has a
real VDG on it.

Yep, the offset thing is in my plans. Renaming also. But all the other
functions AFAIK should be passed to BASIC then return to ML cause we
don't have JMP tables for all functions.  For example to do DRIVE OFF
from ML, I have no clue, since it could be in different positions for
HDB and RGB DOS.
