Excellent.

It also turns out that storing a 121 in 65441 under both VCC and MESS 
emulators returns the 121 back, even though a 57 is initially 
there.  This is good.  As long as somebody on the M.E.S.S. team 
doesn't go and try to mess this up for everybody, I can make a single 
LOADMable version of my extended size games with all components 
embedded and automatically stashing to specific MMU blocks in the 
CoCo while loading.

As I was telling Richard Ivey, my trio of software titles (Rainbow 
IDE, CCASM, and Projector-3) is proving today to be the magic suite 
for producing studio quality stuff pretty quickly depending on your 
coding skills.  Actually, the open source audio tool for the PC 
called Audacity is a must since I use it to create raw PCM files from 
just about Anything audible.
