[Coco] CoCo SDC and others

[Kip Koon]

Hi Ron,
I will have to check out YA-DOS on the CoCo3FPGA.  You may be getting a question or two soon.  :)

I would also like to show support for YA-DOS as I'm a very big fan of it.
I use it on all my Coco platforms -- real Coco 2 and 3, CoCo3FPGA, MAME, VCC, XRoar, etc..  It's my hope that others check it out as well.

You might be happy to know that Brett's YA-DOS already provides support for using the SD card in DECB (actually, YA-DOS) on the CoCo3FPGA.  As you mentioned, there are others working on SD card support, but it's nice to have something that works for the time being.  Untethered access to files in Basic makes using the CoCo3FPGA even more enjoyable.
