That stuff looks grand. I'll try it tomorrow. Setting up the RPi is 
something of a production at the moment. Wires everywhere. And the new 
screen does double duty as a second monitor for my Mac. So, the detailed 
advice you've provided I'll have to read, think about, and try in the 
morning.
I figure !System adds a module and I should see it by getting the 
TaskWindow and entering *MODULES. (I found an old Archimedes manual at a 
library at the U.ofT.). I think you said as much about drilling down 
through the !boot file. It won't be long now. It's opening up at high 
speed, as I only got it all assembled on Sunday.

Thanks,
Chris
