Version 2.3 can be found on Fred Fish 177.  It will BARELY run on a 1 meg
machine.

Version 5.1 is on Fred Fish 278.  The executable is about 470k.  Unfortunatley
 a one meg machine without the super agnus never has the contiguous 470k that
aspice requires.  This brings up a question of my own.  Does anyone know of a
way to force the system structures to load into chip ram only?  My idea would
be to use one of those nofastmem type programs that survives a reboot, reset
the system and then reenable fast ram.  Will this work?
