[Coco] CoCo Memory Map Assembly Language Equates

[Little John]

Hey Robert,
That was just me trying to be funny again - it really didn't take a long 
time to assemble under Disk EDTASM+ and everything that I am currently 
working on will be made available in Disk EDTASM format and tested with both 
that and mamou.
I think I need my sense of humor upgraded or replaced with a newer revision
John's Dad :)
P.S. Robert - what is your web address?
        I searched for it under google, but the link provided was 
unreachable.
