This is a port of runcpm to the raspberry pi pico.
It is based on:
* [RunCPM](https://github.com/MockbaTheBorg/RunCPM/)
* [RunCPM_RPi_Pico](https://github.com/guidol70/RunCPM_RPi_Pico)
It works on a Raspberry Pi Pico (or Pico W). It uses the internal flash
for storage, and can be mounted as USB storage.
First, build for your device. You must
* Use the Philhower Pico Core
* In the Tools menu, select
* A flash size option that includes at least 512kB for filesystem
* USB Stack: Adafruit TinyUSB
After it boots the first time, you need to
* Format the flash device on your host computer
* Create the folder "<DEVICE>/A/0"
* Put something useful in that folder, such as [Zork](http://www.retroarchive.org/cpm/games/zork123_80.zip)
* Files must respect the "8.3" naming convention (8 letters filename + 3 letters extension) and be all uppercase
* Safely eject the drive, then reset the emulator.
* Now at the "A0>" prompt you can run "ZORK1".
