[Coco] Playing or converting CAS files

[Arthur Flexser]

For a non-segmented cassette file, you can get the addresses by peeking
right after the program has loaded:

Start: PRINT PEEK(487)*256+PEEK(488)      ($1E7-8)
End: PRINT PEEK(126)*256+PEEK(127) -1   ($7E-F)
Exec: PRINT PEEK(157)*256+PEEK(158)      ($9D-E)

This method doesn't work for disk files, except for the exec address, which
holds for segmented and non-segmented files, cassette or disk.

One method for getting the addresses for a segmented or non-segmented disk
file is to download ADOS (or ADOS-3 for a CoCo 3) and use the command
SCAN"filename".
