Joshua Bell 7bbc96924b Add SETUP.SYSTEM and build .SETUP files
This is an alternate approach proposed by Sean Nolan in 1987 which
allows placing the driver files in a subdirectory of the root volume
to avoid clutter and file ordering issues. Only a SETUP.SYSTEM file is
needed at the top level, and the drivers go into a SETUPS/ directory.

All drivers here (except QUIT.SYSTEM and SETUP.SYSTEM itself) have
alternate forms built into the /DRIVERS/SETUPS/ directory as XYZ.SETUP
instead of XYZ.SYSTEM. If you choose to use SETUP.SYSTEM, place these
.SETUP files in your SETUPS/ directory. The naming doesn't matter -
any SYS or BIN file can be used - but this convention makes
distribution easier. These .SETUP files do **NOT** chain to the next
file - that's handled by SETUP.SYSTEM itself.

No Slot Clock ProDOS Driver

Adapted from NS.CLOCK.SYSTEM (by "CAP"), with these changes:

  • Fixes a typo
  • Removes beeps
  • Is less chatty so you can have multiple clock drivers, e.g. if you use the same hard disk image across different hardware configurations
  • Uses file I/O rather than block I/O for chaining
  • Does not hard-code driver file name

Other Utilities

These BRUNable files are also built:

NS.CLOCK.SETUP is for use with SETUP.SYSTEM.
