I am trying to write an INIT resource to reset a few of the values
in the parameter ram.  Unfortunately, since GetSysPPtr is not in
ROM, LightSpeed Pascal won't let me call it with the DA PasLib.  I
know the address in low memory of the stuff I want.  My question is
how do I get the address into my pointer variable.  If I had 
assembler available it would be fairly simple, just move $01F8 to
the appropriate location (I think I can even find that, it seems at
the moment to be (A6)-12 bytes), but I don't have assembler.  I 
could use Generic(??), I suppose, but I don't know what goes in 
there either.  Can anyone out there help me?  Any assistance will 
be greatly appreciated.
