Definitely.
Without an extra comfort, I believe it should be doable right now.
It's just matter of filling the IOCB structure, setting the X register
and calling appropriate ROM function.
For simple reading/writing of memory block/array, this should be quite
sufficient.
Future support basically includes two possible enhancements:
- arrays of structures (so it is posible to define just array of IOCB
instead of 8 separate IOCBs - this is however just useful only when
trying to use IOCB somewhat dynamically)
- arrays of variable length (now, you would have to keep separate
variable to track number of items in an array, if you want to read/
write variable number of bytes)
