[Coco] RS232 Nictro Os9 Level 2 and VCC

[David Ladd]

Phillip,

Well I myself don't know Java so I can't do anything about the DriveWire 4
Server itself.  Hopefully some day Aaron Wolfe would be willing to come
back and do some updates. :D

As far as the DriveWire drivers on NitrOS-9 those could probably be
updated, but would still need the extra protocol data for the CD info. :(

Some day this might be a option. :(
