[Coco] FHL Color Flex

[Kip Koon]

I wonder what version work on the coco.  FHL Color Flex does at least begin
to boot.  It just has a major problem with the emulator.  I just tried VCC,
XRoar, and Return of COCO all loaded with the latest version of HDBDOS for
that particular emulator.  They all produce the same results when I try to
type in the date.   Hum...
A couple of years ago, I did get it to boot.  I entered the date and it went
on and booted into Flex, displayed the initial Flex boot message and I got
the famous "+++" prompt.  But at that point, I didn't know anything about it
so I could not even do a directory listing to see what was on the disk
image.  However with CocoDskUtil, now I can at least look at the directory
of a Flex disk and see the filenames and how big the files are.  
Maybe Cataloging of disk image contents can be added to CocoDskUtil.  Luis?
Anyway, I think I was still using the regular Disk Basic 1.1 roms in the
emulator at the time.  Maybe that is the problem?  I'll have to test that
idea.

I've also tried and failed to get those images to work.
