Hi Charlie,

It sounds like you got OVCC to compile so  all you have to do now is 
start OVCC in a directory that contains the "coco3.rom" file and it 
should work.

I just tested this on my computer and OVCC behaves just as you 
described. If I start in a directory that contains the "coco3.rom" file, 
everything works.
