Actually, I believe tape and disk are identical in this regard:  both permit the
(c)loadm'ing of files with multiple origins, but not the (c)savem'ing of
them.  As I recall, this capability of cloadm was not in Color Basic but was
added with Extended Basic.  (What would be the point of tape Edtasm allowing the
creation of multi-segment binaries if Basic couldn't load them with cloadm?)
