[Coco] New! Cassette to floppies

[Robert Gault]

Made a test with CSAVEM"TEST",&H6000,&H7000,0 then CLOADM"TEST".
The exec address worked as we both have agreed. The START address given 
below did not correspond to anything useful. The END address given below 
  gave the correct start address. This did surprise me not because it 
was start instead of end, but that it worked at all.
