We have "fallen" into some unwritten rules about the file-names of
drivers:

1. They start with the name of the target system and a hyphen.
2. TGI driver names end with the resolution of the driver (horizontal,
   vertical, and the number of conditions into which a pixel can be set
   [it isn't quite the same as the number of colors]).
3. Those names are long; but, the file-systems on the various 6502
   platforms have severe limits on the lengths of their names.
   Therefore, we often give shorter names to the final binary files.
   That renaming is done by this make-file: "libsrc/Makefile".

From time to time, I have thought about some low-resolution drivers for
Commodore computers.  They would use PetSCII graphics characters.  They
could work through the CONIO interface.  The same driver could run on
any Commodore model.  Some possible resolutions are:

80 by 50 by 16
160 by 50 by 16

Bar graphs:
320 by 25 by 16
640 by 25 by 16
200 by 40 by 16
200 by 80 by 16
