irly sure that the entire kernel is pure assembly. Most of the
commands are 'C'. I don't know how different the Motorola series is
from National Semi's, but somehow I don't think recoding an operating
system would be a minor task. If I had the source, I'd give it a go though! :-)

	Oh, a minor point :- OS9 was first written for the 6809, not the 6800.
