Not with conio. Looking at libsrc/apple2/cputc.s, putchar stores 
characters in video memory, bypassing the I/O hooks.

I'd have thought sdtio might work, as you suggest. It uses _write, which 
calls COUT, which in turn vectors through zero page CSWL/H, owned and 
operated by ProDOS. I don't know why it's not working.
