No uploading is supported yet.  I didn't use LOAD for the command 
because no actual CoCo loading into RAM is being done.  SAVEW fetches 
a page or file from the web and makes it available on one of your 
virtual disks withins seconds or even quicker.  You choose the URL 
and you choose the CoCo disk filename to save the output as.  You 
then open the CoCo disk file and do whatever with it.

I suppose I can enhance the GET and PUT commands instead which makes 
more sense, and leave SAVE/LOAD along since it would become confusing 
without looking at some flowchart of what's actually happening.
