   ProDOS-86, yet another stupid Apple ][-r

   Several years ago, I thought of the idea of implementing ProDOS on some   
   machine other than an Apple ][.  I know it's stupid, insane and useless,   
   but I decided to make ProDOS on an XT a thing, after some experience with   
   my Tandy 1000HX about 20 years ago.   
      
   Currently, I'm still at a complete loss of direction, but I did manage to   
   write an IPL for it, i.e., a bootloader that can load a kernel file off a   
   disk.  Of course, it's NASM code for an 8086.  I haven't even tried to   
   make a "diglot" boot sector the way I do on an Apple ///.
