Kuma, a company in Britain with experience in the ST market, at one time 
produced a traansputer developement system: K-Max.  The K-Max module was 
designed to plug into a 520ST or 1040ST and included developement software.
The price was rather steep, compared to other products in the market at the 
time.  I am not certain if Kuma still offers the package.
