vm02: calling all IIcs - Take 3



Whew. I really hope this works. Thanks again to all who tested and submitted feedback on this project. While spending so much time working out the IIc VBL issues, I was negligent with the II/II+. I went to re-test the classes that use the 80 column card and found a mess. My videx doesn't do well being interrupted. So, I finally worked out a solution by disabling interrupts during initialization and setting MSLOT myself before calling the output routine (with interrupts enabled). I'm not terribly pleased with the character output code which uses the CSW function pointer, so I may write a real output routine for the videx and IIe/IIc. I understand that the un-enhanced IIes disable interrupts during screen access which disrupts high speed serial I/O. Can't have that.
