I am instructed that the Oric actually catches only positive transitions, and compares the distance between those to a threshold. So here's an altered version of the tape parser that does that.

Workaround for a weird bug that suddenly appears to manifest: gzgetc is returning the file name, not bytes from the file. Seems to be related to improper initialisation of the next field within the gzFile header. I can't immediately see where ZLib intends to do that so it's a bit mysterious. But the larger-than-8 readers could probably save time by reading in blocks anyway.

More or less rewrote, to use a filled-per-chunk buffer of upcoming pulses rather than working them out as requests come. Which is more straightforward — all the code for a particular chunk goes in exactly one place — and much easier to extend. So threw in a provisional 0104 implementation.

Addressed my dithering here: the file format containers themselves should do nothing but inspect the data to find out whether it is of the correct format. The machine steps are there for machine-specific validation. So it's probably easier to treat a binary ROM image just as a binary ROM image. Therefore, the Acorn-specific .rom detection is now in an Acorn-specific area.

ROMs definitely have no behaviour other than responding to memory accesses. Cartridges might. So picked the more general term. Sketched out a class at least to parse PRG as though it were a cartridge. Hence the static analyser can guess at whether a PRG is a cartridge or an ordinary program.

Fixed parity: now calculated from the actual byte and works the other way around. The Vic now believes it is loading the actual program. So I guess bytes, headers and the lead-in is working.

Lengths I'd taken seem to have been for dipoles, not single poles. So I just doubled the clock rate. Also I was producing each dipole as high then low, when they should probably be low then high. The Vic now at least recognises that something is happening on the tape.
