| | Author's Comments | Crown Load and Crown-Copy were born back in the day when someone brought an original NovaLoad cassette. Besides saving the program itself, I saved separately the tape header buffer and stack payload, which is what the NovaLoad turbo is made of. I then printed out the disassembly and deciphered what it does. Finally I wrote my own save code for it, which is compatible with the NovaLoad loader. There is a difference, NovaLoad looks for the file saved with the turbo under the name "NOVA", in the case of Crown Load this became "CROWN". Also, there may be a difference in the absence of 0 1 bits, the total bit length in the case of Novaload varies, I think, while in my case, I remember that they saved an asymmetric square signal, so each bit has a fixed time length.
