[Coco] Development environment

[Hugo Dufort]

Richard, if you try my DOS game "Ikham" (mentioned in my previous 
message) in DosBox, you can actually press CTRL+F12 a few times so that 
the emulator runs faster. I've found that at 20,000+ cycles the game is 
much smoother, with no delay between moves.

About DynoSprite, have you made the source code available? I have run 
the demos, but I'm not sure I have downloaded the sources if they're 
available.

By the way, I have worked on my sprite rendering routines for the Coco3 
tonight and so far everything works as planned. I can create a sprite 
structure in memory, load pixels in the structure, and render it with 
transparency and "semi-transparency" (palette trick).
