[Coco] Developing DECB under OS9

[Dave Philipsen]

Maybe one of these days I'll make a better setup for making such 
videos.  The NitrOS9 screen shows a 2016 date because I don't have a 
real-time-clock on my CoCo 3 and I didn't bother to manually set the 
time when I booted it.

As you can see, an 80-column editor and lots of disk space are 
relatively easy to come by in OS9.  I could have used the stock 'asm' 
from OS9 but I elected to use the CSC assembler because I'm comfortable 
with it and I have used it for many years.  I also have CSC cross 
assemblers for 6502, 6801, 8051, 8048, Z80, and others that will all run 
under OS9 and they all work pretty much the same.

Tools used: MINTED editor, CSC6809 assembler, S1LOAD to convert hex file to binary, RSDOS to manipulate files in a DECB partition from within OS9.
