IMD files are created by the ImageDisk utility in a special format.
This tool allows to recreate a pure data file (.DSK) that can be
used under SimH. The tool is coded solely based on the open description
of the IMD format published by the ImageDisk author, Dave Dunfield.
Fix some OS/8 directory handling routines which did not correctly handle
directories with optional extended words. Add missing
RL01 initialization support for RT11.
Just tried to build fsio on FreeBSD and found it complaining about
unknown functions letoh32. Turns out that the attempt to make this
portable to FreeBSD is incorrectly assuming that FreeBSD should be
like NetBSD, when in fact it is more like OpenBSD in this regard.
Moving the defined(__FreeBSD__) so it selects the same block as
__OpenBSD__ makes fsio build correctly on FreeBSD 11 (and presumably
later).
The top and second level Makefiles that build the whole project by
recursing into all their subdirectories had implemented these by long
lists of invocations and then repeated these for all the all, clean,
install, uninstall targets. There were mistakes such as some
subdirectories not being cleaned.
Introduce SUBDIRS variables instead and have the targets loop over those
and additionally implement the clean, install, uninstall targets with a
single rule.
rawtap Allows extract, create and append operations on .tap files.
cpytap Copies a .tap file to a new .tap file while allowing file level edits; skip file, replace file,
append files and insert files. Any files copied from the original source .tap will have
their internal record structure maintained.
cosy COSY is the compressed format used by the CDC1700. This program allows for
extraction of all files from an archive and the creation of a new archive. It assumes
that you would have used raw tap about to have extracted the COSY file from a
tape.
dbtap Utility to read, write and list .tap containers written in the DOS/BATCH-11 format. It
understands ascii and binary modes and can be used to transfer files in and out of
most PDP-11 operating systems (not sure about RSTS/E), early VMS and early
TOPS-10 systems.
1) The readme is out-of-date, and unreadable on github
2) Some tools have their own directories, some don't
3) Many tools have neither readme nor descriptions.
4) Some files are misplaced
This reorganizes so that each tool has its own directory, even if it only has a single file
(Hint: If you use a tool, please add/update READMEs)
The master README is complete, and readable on github
The tools are in alphabetical order within category. There are some cases where this probably isn't the right thing to do, e.g. where there are separate tools that do "to" and "from" conversions.
Each tool has at least a 1-line description in the master readme
This commit does not change any tool.
