[Coco] Cassette To Disk Transfer

[Bob Devries]

Many ML(machine language) programs which were supplied on tape will likely 
not run on a disk system because they have a load address in the disk 
variable space from the top of screen ram up.

Also, some programs which were supplied on tape had additional data files. 
This is fine for disk, except if those files all have the same filename 
(often 8 spaces, or no name at all). This makes transfer to disk 
problematical.
