IO  (SOUND LIST)                                     PAGE  I4
          -------------------------------------------------------------
          The variable can input or output values ranging from 0 to 255
          as that is equivalent to a single byte value. As there are
          two variables 16 bits can be represented in the two 8 bit
          variables. If CRU input reads less than 8 bits, the unused
          bits in the byte are reset to zero. If CRU input reads less
          then 16 but more than 8 bits, the unused bits in the word
          will be reset to zero. The bits range from 1 to 16 for input
          or output.

           Control of the Sound Generator Chip (SGC) in the system
          console is through a pre-defined table in GROM/GRAM or VDP
          memory. Sound output is controlled by the table and the VDP
          Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). A control byte at the end of
          the table can cause control to loop back up in the table to
          continue, or end sound output. The format of the table is the
          same regardless of where it resides. The table consists of a
          series of blocks, each of which contains a series of bytes
          which are directly output to the SGC.
           Since the VDP generates 60 interrupts per second, the
          interrupt count is expressed in units of one-sixtieth of a
          second.
           When the IO command is called, upon the next occurring
          VDP interrupt, the first block of bytes is output to the SGC.
          The interpreter (Operating System) waits the requested number
          of interrupts (for example, if interrupt counts are 1, every
          interrupt causes the next block to be output). Remember that
          interpretation of XB continues normally while the SGC control
          is enabled.
           The sound control can be terminated by using an interrupt
          count of 0 in the last block of the table. Alternatively, a
          primitive looping control is provided by using a block whose
          first byte is 0, and the next 2 bytes indicate an address in
          the same memory space of the next sound block to use. (That
          means one block points to another block only in the same type
          of memory).
