Ah! I didn't notice mention of Super Chip before. Is there any way you could create a
file usable by VICE from yours or is it already available on the Web?

I can't help you with VICE. In a pinch, I could get you a dump of
Super Chip, which you could then burn onto an EPROM. Alternatively,
you could LINK the pkg.c128 from the COMAL Today Disk #13. The C128
package on Super Chip is an expanded version with more commands, but
TURBO is on both.

How does VICE work with COMAL 2.0? Does it easily use packages in ROM
images? What are the limitations of VICE with respect to using COMAL
2.0?

The cartridge image itself seems to work great. I did find an image of
SuperChip but I don't see a way to use it with VICE. Does anyone here
know if it's even possible and if so, how to do it?

I would like to have an image of SuperChip, where did you find it?

The usual place. Zimmers.net has lots of great stuff.
