<p><br/><br/>
Nga provides a virtual processor and an extensible way of adding
I/O devices, but does not provide any I/O itself. Adding I/O is
the responsability of the <strong>interface layer</strong>.
<br/><br/>
An interface layer will wrap Nga, providing at least one I/O
device (a generic output target), and a means of interacting
with the <strong>retro image</strong>.
<br/><br/>
It's expected that this layer will be host specific, adding any
system interactions that are needed via the I/O instructions.
The image will typically be extended with words to use these.
