Yep folks, it's me again with some more "he doesn't even know that?!?" 
questions for y'all...   ;-)

I now have the BBC ROMs loaded into my emulator and working okay; I'm 
working steadily through the ROM code and so far my 6502 appears to be 
working okay. It's slow progress, though...

Anyway, I've got a few questions which have arisen since I started trying 
to get the ROMs working.

What is stored at &258? As far as I have got in the emulator, it is 
loaded but nothing has been saved in it - does it hold something special 
or am I getting things wrong again?

Do I *really* not have to pay attention to Sheila peeks/pokes? I was told 
that I just had to start up the emulator with BASIC loaded in at the 
paged ROM area (&8000-&BFFF) but is this really true? So far I have come 
across addressing of FE4E, FE42, FE40, FE43, FE4F as well as FE30 (the 
only one which I know what it does!). Can I really ignore all of these?
