Ok, so now I am delving in to vtio.asm and I've hit another brick wall.
I thought I had all of the files required to build NitrOS9 but I see a
reference to a file called "systype" in the defsfile. My defsfile only
references os9defs, rbfdefs, scfdefs, and cocodefs. Where do I find the
systype file? Perhaps it contains the refrerence for SHFTCLR and ohers.
