Feature request: Read .idx files

Sometimes in a .tap preserved file (magazine, multi-games or Turbo Load tapes), you have all programs/games saved one per one (because all of them are recorded after each other in one preserved file).

Then, I would like to put the virtual position of each program (as the datassette counter) to run Turbo Load program at the beginning and jump to the correct position to load the program or game.

Another example, 007 A View To a Kill preserved tap game (it's only one file too). It has different missions and you need to reset your c64 after finish each one to load the following (because at the end there are completely independent programs) and when you are using a real datassette, you need to move to the correct counter position.

There is a tool named TAP Manager (v.1.6.0 or later), that you can download from http://www.manosoft.it/ that generates an index file (.idx). You can choose between to type of index files (Princess or Ultimate 64):

Examples of taps files with .idx files (index) are at archive.org (from The Ultimate Tape Archive collection):

My request, add the feature of read .idx file (as an index) to move between tape positions.

Thanks and best regards, Shark
