I still say for the project the OP is developing mounting a hard drive 
image between the emulator and a real coco runing drivewire would be 
perfect (I'm assuming he's using OS/9) he should be able to load nitros9 
with drivewire drivers in VCC or any other suitable emulator, edit his 
sources and compile in the emulator, shut down the emulator and then 
mount the emulators drive image in the drivewire server and then boot 
the real coco to test his new drivewire extensions.
