No, I'm talking about the simulated system. When using a
simulator input/output usually happen using simulator hooks,
often by executing some "software interrupt" instruction, rather
than through simulated hardware (with all necessary
initialization). (Maybe memory allocation wasn't a good example
for an 8-bitter. :-)
