Allow SAVE/LOAD to tape #4

@unbibium

Description

@unbibium

The advantage of saving or loading to a tape or audio device, is that you don't have to worry about filesystems.

The disadvantage is that it won't be fast, and not a lot of people in retro computing still have working tape drives.

Implementation options:

  • Build a Datasette adapter to some Atari port, and adapt CBM's tape code directly to use it.
  • Adapt CBM's tape code to work with Atari Program Recorders.
  • Adapt Atari's tape code.

I can't do it myself; I don't have a working tape drive for either system at the moment.
