TIImageTool 1.4

[+mizapf]

Hi there,

 

please allow me to inform you about a new release of TIImageTool. For those who have not heard from it before, it is a tool that allows you to open disk image files as used with many emulators, and to work on them with common disk operations (like cut/copy/paste of files). It is particularly tailored for use with MESS but can also be used with other emulators.

 

Supports:

• Sector Dump Format (also known as v9t9 format)
  
• Track Dump Format (aka PC99 format)
  
• CHD Format (MESS container for hard disk images), new: create, extract, convert CHD
  
• Working with files, directories (creating, moving, deleting, renaming...)
  
• XModem sender and receiver included
  
• Serial bridge (to enable real RS232 connection with MESS)
  
• File system check
  
• New: Archiver support (can process Archiver files on the images)
  
• New: Create a Geneve boot disk (included GeneveOS 6.50 redist release)
  
• and more
  

You can download a copy from http://www.ninerpedi...php/TIImageTool . License is GPL v3.

 

You need a Java Runtime Environment (Java Platform SE 5 or higher), and for the serial port features you also need the RXTX library.

 

Have fun,

 

Michael

Very well done. I like the possibility to open multiple disk images at once.

Also cool that the reference manual is included in the tool.

 

With the new v9t9 emulator and TIImageTool we have both a TI-99/4A emulator and Disk Image Tool written in java. :thumbsup:

I don't want to praise my own works here, but the really fun thing is the new archiver support. Indeed, I have a "public class Archive extends Directory" in my code. With all consequences...
