Meaningful text! Albeit with the initial 'O' of 'Oric' missing. I guess control codes and NMIs next?

Switched to using a diagnostic ROM for now, as it'll definitely boot without initially requiring either a 6522 or AY. Have some forms appearing which imply I'm not doing badly, at least up to not knowing where I'm supposed to get character pixels from.

Treading water some more, ensured the DFS and ADFS ROMs get to the Electron. It now even inserts the DFS ROM if it has a DFS disk image. Might need to make it a sideways RAM though? Regardless, the next job surely — surely! — has to be to stop avoiding the 1770?

Tweaked disk side density, added call-outs to a WD1770 if the Electron had one (albeit without run_for_cycles yet as I need to figure out the clock rate), added a shell of the basic functions of the WD1770. No implementation yet.

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?

Formalised clock-rate multiplication within disk drives, discovered that the stepper didn't have ideal behaviour for my timed event loop and hence nailed down the semantics a ilttle more.
(obiter: the 1540 now appears to discern the correct sequence of bits. Framing is off in my test printfs but that's neither here nor there).

Wired up the 1540 as a PLL delegate. Which prima facie means it should start receiving a bit stream. Except that I clearly have something in the timing way off — either my flux transitions are far too short or I need to significantly increase the clock rate on the PLL.
