### Compiling

Install
[SDCC](http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/).

If your `make` is not a BSD Make, install it and use `bmake` instead of `make`.
You'll also need `objcopy` from Binutils installed in your `$PATH`.

Create an `obj` directory with `mkdir obj` and then run `make LOC=ram` to
compile a version suitable for running from RAM (via the Loader).

Then transfer `obj/msterm.bin` to the MailStation with
[WSLoader](https://jcs.org/wifistation)
which will load the application at memory address `0x8000`.
