[Coco] D.L. Logo question

[Bob Devries]

Robert,
I ran the demo program on a real coco2, and it ran perfectly.
I loaded up MESS with the coco2 emulation, and although the DL LOGO disk 
booted to OS-9 perfectly, the LOGO program didn't work correctly.
Symptoms:
Typing LOGO at the OS-9 prompt, causes the LOGO program to load and run, and 
the LOGO startup screen shows, with the ? and blue block cursor. However, 
typing on the keyboard after that doesn't result in any characters showing 
up.
It seemed to be locked up. A Soft Reset in MESS re-booted OS-9.
