I was looking through my firmware reference manual for the routine I
can call from the miscellaneous tool set's FWEntry routine that would
disassemble a instruction.  I think I found it - INSTDSP at $F8D0.

But what I am wondering is how I can call this routine and support
various register lengths.  Somebody PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong,
but what I have to to to begin to get this thing working is to first
put the instruction I want disassembled into bank 0, set the zero page
locations $3A/$3B to point to my code I want disassembled (yes, zero
page as opposed to direct page, right?) then call FWEntry.

What kind of results can I expect from this?  I want to use GS/OS
character device output to display the disassembled instruction so
