None

[Larry Whitley]

That's it!  Here's the offending code, a little earlier in process().

        elif pc.command == "dual": # command was a dual address cycle
            pc.command, None, None = tr.decodeCommand()

Looks like it considers None a variable though it is not under the elif that
used it.

Thanks, I'll fix it up.
