For that pack, I re-compiled BUILD from source in order to get it to work

Did you use BUILD.PA available from here?

I tried using palbart to assemble it and got numerous errors. Haven't tried
it with PAL8 yet.
On a related note, what's the easiest way to transfer a large swath of
text, like BUILD.PA, to OS/8 through the console TTY? I thought about
coming up with a simple program to send files to EDIT (which would require
sending until a page feed, saving the buffer to disk, killing the buffer,
appending to the buffer, and continuing on, correct?) but have neglected
doing so since most of my assembly programs are less than the buffer's
length.
