"Load" option doesn't always load the selected tape #35

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
This is just a suggestion.

Currently, pressing the "Load" option in the menu will:
-Type LOAD""
-Press Enter
-Play tape

However, depending on the situation, this will not always make the currently 
inserted tape to load. The tape's current position might be in a non-directly 
loadable block, or the Spectrum could be in the middle of a program.

Since the purpose of this option is to ease the user's process of loading 
tapes, the emu could play more safe if it did the following:
-Rewind tape
-Reset
-Type LOAD""
-Press Enter
-Play tape

If I add also Rewind tape and Reset, there is the problem of multi game on a 
same tape (issue 29).

Anyhow with the current versione loading a new game requires only two steps:

1) Reset (which also rewind the tape if the new option is enabled)
2) Load

Well, yeah, you have a point with multi game tapes so please disregard.

But regarding doing an automatic reset before LOAD"", I can't think of any case 
where it wouldn't be useful.
