YES... there's a Lot of bad .cas images that seem to have been made 
without verifying.  Take what works (I know, catch-22) and use those.  :)

Do you plan to give VCC the ability to launch BASIC programs as 
well?  Surely a challenge if they are in ASCII format, if your 
current technique is to inject the .bin, .rom, and .cas files into 
the CoCo's memory without the ROMs doing any work.

Anyway, thumbs up to an emulator that's won the vote over here.  Keep 
up the great work.
