CoCoTape 1.0 by Roger Taylor

CoCoTape converts CoCo DECB floppy disk (.bin) files to Wave (.wav) files.
Roger Taylor wrote: It is not a sine-wave to byte converter like casin.exe is, nor is it a
.cas to sinewave converter like casout.exe. It turns any PC-stored
file into a live CoCo tape audio stream or a Wave file (or
both). You just specify what format the CoCo expects to load the
stream as. Obviously if the CoCo can load it (which it can), the
Wave file is ready to record onto a cassette tape from the PC if you
have a way of doing that. This makes it possible to produce CoCo
tape software from your PC.

Keep in mind that it doesn’t handle multi-origin LOADM files yet.
Instead, the PC will send a fake file to the CoCo that causes a
“BY GOLLY… IT WORKS!” message on the CoCo screen which
would be annoying had I not warned you first. :)

A handy tool for me. Have already converted several BIN files to WAV and loaded at my CoCo.
