That's all fine and well...lemme explain a little better.  I can't even
get the sample program (key bored) to work.  Double clicking (from the finder)
a D33 launcher file runs prodos and then the Dos 3.3 launcher info gets
put up on the P8 splash screen, and then *beep* *crash*.

This is really really annoying...I seem to be the only one with problems
with the D33 launcher.
