[Oberon] OberonStation

[Chris Burrows]

Hi Bob,

I have solved the backup problem in a different way. I use Astrobe for RISC5
for developing with an OberonStation. I keep all of the Oberon sources on
Windows and just compile and upload the executables (*.rsc) files at 115200
baud to the OberonStation via an RS232 dongle. 

This version of Astrobe will be generally available (for no charge) within a
week or two. See the announcement on the OberonStation forum:
