I did something more elaborate than that for 7 years as a Z80 assembly language programmer 7 years ago. Once I was told to fix a broken wire with a software code change over my protests that it was broken. I got a technician to ohm out the line for me and fix it. (There was this running battle between the software group and the hardware group! We also served crow regularly! 🙂 ) We did have a Mostek AID-80F development system with an ICE (In-Circuit Emulator). The clock had to come from the embedded system when emulating. The development system had constantly running 8-inch floppy diskette drives. Printouts were done on a Centronics 201 printer.
