[Coco] Gene's script...

[Bob Devries]

Thanks, Tormod.

I have done as you suggested. I can indeed run "os9" and "lwasm -V", which 
returns "lwasm from lwtools 4.9". Is there a way (apart from a fresh pull) 
to see which version of Toolshed I have?

Gene's script just saves a lot of typing if you're doing builds regularly, I 
think.
