Hi John

Our project has a few objectives.
1. A program which will scan the bus and configure all the IO ready for
the code below.
2. An emulator for a old program language which was used on a Z80
control board.
3. Implement a language bases on state/event principle for current and
future projects.
4. Implement a interface for compiled modules to be loaded easily.

After the first release we will probably implement a kernel module to
driving the IO as fast as possible.

I really need my question I sent in the last week answered but as this
time no one has responded. :(
