That's a really good idea.  The thing that bothered me the most is
that some memory locations were pointers and some were unsigned long
(for the PEEK/POKE stuff).  So, being more familiar with pointers, I
tried to convert everything to pointers.

Maybe I need to remember the goal....  To simplify the code and make
it maintainable, not to make everything a pointer....

Heck, I think I'll rewrite the PEEK/POKE stuff to use a ((void
*)memloc, uint16_t offset, uintXX_t value).  That would make things
much cleaner.
