Gave the binary tape player a more logical assignment of wave level to output level. Which miraculously appears to have been the issue with the ZX80/81 tape loading — the inconsistency of silences seems to have been the issue.

Settled definitively on flush as more communicative than synchronise (and slightly more locale neutral); culled some more duplication from the Z80.

Pulled the 6502 into a CPU namespace, making it an instance of something that has micro-opcodes and schedules them, and factoring out the formulation of a register pair.

Added logic to try to spot when the first program is BASIC and, if so, what the correct memory model is, then to get that information to the Vic. Though it currently then gets overwritten by the view controller. Grrrr.

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.

Made sufficient changes for the Vic itself to believe it can recast a PRG as a tape and insert it that way. So now the ball is in the court of: how the heck are Commodore tapes encoded?
