[Coco] 4K Coco 1 Color Basic Programming Contest

I think the 
-machine-arch cocous
overrides some settings as a 64k Coco 2 (the "arch" sets the full machine architecture) as you can set that alone and get standard Coco 2 64k DECB (if all roms are present),
Try
-machine cocous
or
-default-machine cocous
or just leave it out and only have the Coco rom in the rom area and it will default to what rom it finds.
I'm not really sure about any of this as XRoar's behavour varries from host to host according to the host and how xroar is set up. Mine is set for Coco2b 64k and comes up listed as PAL but runs as NTSC as I configured it. But I run the GTK version for Windows which provides full menus but is also flakey in it's settings. It's also not one of Ciaran's builds but from a 3rdparty supporter who does the GTK ports (I think).
