Started preparing source code for downloads

I started today on preparing a source code distribution for http://seyfarth.tv/asm. So far I have prepared a src directory in my own computer with ch01, ch02, ... ch19 as subdirectories.  There is a Makefile in each subdirectory which will manage building the demo programs for that chapter.

There is also a master Makefile in the src directory which by default will visit each chapter subdirectory and make its programs.  As an aid to myself, the master Makefile defines a tgz target which used to build a clean src.tgz file to place on the web server.

So far I have completed programs for Chapters 1-6 and am writing some programs for Chapter 7.  Wherever the book has code without an accompanying gdb session it is a fair bet that I haven't yet written and tested the code.  So far I have added one errata entry for a programming type in Chapter 7.

This is fairly quick to do.  I hope to finish it in 1 to 2 more days.
