Ah well, not bad for a day's work.
Now if there was a way of stopping the time out on the demo, it would be
perfect. It's just a pity the original was never finished - does anyone know
why it was scrapped?

Heh, so it does! I wonder if that was meant to return to BASIC or
something, but the system area has been trashed by then?

Yeah, I don't see why not, especially as there have now been a couple of
requests for it. How long it'll take to go in is another matter though!
I bet it'll actually end up being more useful for loading Spectrum tapes
than SAM ones too.

I noticed the comment in the TZX file says "Don't Know If This Works ?",
which suggests it's a blind untested conversion of the tape (we'll find
out eventually!). The comment also mentions the file was created by
Andrew Barker, who co-maintains the TZX archive.
