[Oberon] File transfer.

There are different variants to transfer files between ProjectOberon and a computer. All I use do not involve cables.
1) method as described by Srinivas Nayak
2) if you use the emulator on the Mac (http://macdownload.informer.com/oberon1/), no need to tranfer at all, as this emulator has direct access to the macOS. All native macOS files in the Oberon directory will be listed by System.Directory. All files you generate from within the emulator will be native files accessible by macOS.
3) if I'm on the PC (or Mac) and want to copy files to the SD card for "real" ProjectOberon FPGA board, I use an Oberon program to copy the PC (or Mac) files into the image file before I copy the image file to the SD card.
