Yes of course.

My OS9Boot is different.  I changed the boot file that came with the VCCemudisk so I could add DW support!

Thanks

It likely is just a simple dmode on an existing window descriptor.

I changed all the Tandy windows for OS-9 on the CoCo3 to be useful ones, 
starting with the Tandy supplied windows description understanding in 
the book and what the none useful windows were.

PM me if you want the asm source for the complete window set and the 
results to add to your boot file replacing the bum ones.

NitrOS-9 has changed the names of some drivers so they will need to be 
changed.

may be useful, that shellplus script can take any descriptor and change 
it to a new use.
