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.

"Jumbo" ProDOS Clock Driver

This is an amalgamation of the other clock driver installers. Each one is tried in turn, until one successfully installs a clock driver.

The drivers are (in order):

  • No-Slot Clock
  • ROMX
  • FujiNet
  • DClock
  • Cricket!

By default, the installer logs on success so you can tell what clock was detected, but you can build with LOG_SUCCESS=0 to prevent that.

If ProDOS already has a clock driver installed, the driver is checked for common Thunderclock year tables. If found, the table is updated in memory to cover 2023-2028.

CLOCK.SETUP is for use with SETUP.SYSTEM.
