CiderPress Linux Utilities
==========================
CiderPress is a Windows app, but the code for accessing NuFX (ShrinkIt)
archives and disk images can be built as libraries on Linux and used
from applications. A few samples are provided. Most are really just
API demos, but they may come in handy.
You need to build NufxLib, the diskimg library, and then the samples.
Build Instructions
------------------
1. Configure and build NufxLib library
cd nufxlib
./configure
make
2. build diskimg library
cd ../diskimg
make
3. build libhfs library
cd libhfs
make
4. build samples
cd ../../linux
make
The build system could use some work.
Sample Programs
---------------
The current sample programs are:
`getfile disk-image filename` --
Extract a file from a disk image The file is written to stdout.
`makedisk {dos|prodos|pascal} size image-filename.po file1 ...` --
Create a new disk image, with the specified size and format, and copy the
specified files onto it. The NON file type is used.
`mdc file1 ...` --
This is a Linux port of the MDC utility that ships with CiderPress.
It recursively scans all files and directories specified, displaying
the contents of any disk images it finds.
### Bonus Programs ###
`iconv infile outfile` --
Convert an image from one format to another. This was used for testing.
`packddd infile outfile` --
The DDD code was originally developed under Linux. This code is here
for historical reasons.
`sstasm part1 part2` --
The SST re-assembly code was originally developed under Linux. The code
is here for historical reasons.
