Just for clarity's sake, ACID is a library of routines I wrote to make
writing the 2.0 version easier (screen output, disk i/o, whatever).
There might be other ways to write a large-ish assembly language program,
but putting together the support library first works for me.

Of course, with desktop programs, Apple has done the support library for
you.
Hard at work isn't really accurate, but it will be released this summer.
