12-Feb-2008
-----------
HostIO:
IO_Init
IO calls vector to subroutines
IO_Init sets tty to raw/noecho
quit sets tty to noraw/echo
word0 does delete with vdu 8,32,8
08-Feb-2008: HostIO: RDCH/WRCH use direct TRAP calls
CLI checks for *Quit command

GeneralIO:
printR0 processes COUNT
IO_ReadLine calls OSWORD 0
IO_Escape generates error if escape state

SysVars:
Added SV_Escape
Added IO calls vector table
Vector table has default UNIX_* entries

Commands:
Command table uses dest-$
Command table is 80-FF
STOP temp. used for QUIT
PRINT uses test code
ERROR, STOP, NEW, LIST done
PAGE=, LOMEM=, HIMEM= done

; VDU gives 'missing comma'
close, bput, ptr, ext, load, loadprogram
save, =ptr, =ext, =bget, =eof,
oscli, =oscli, adval

Evaluate:
EvalXXX check for char, then evaluate integer
temp. simple integer and string evaluation
   
Functions:
=<program functions>
 
Commands:
PRINT works fully, number conversion not yet implemented
