diskii
Note: diskii is not stable yet! I don't expect to remove functionality, but I'm still experimenting with the command syntax and organization, so don't get too comfy with it yet.
diskii is a commandline tool for working with Apple II disk images.
It is also a library of code that can be used by other Go programs.
Its major advantage is that it's written in Go, hence cross-platform. (Travis is currently set up to build for Linux, MacOS, and Windows, for amd64 architecture. Send a pull request if you want to add a platform.)
Its major disadvantage is that it mostly doesn't exist yet.
It rhymes with “whiskey”.
Discussion/support is in #apple2 on the retrocomputing Slack (invites here).
Goals
Eventually, it aims to be a comprehensive disk image manipulation
tool, but for now only the applesoft decode
command works.
The library code aims (a) to support the commandline tool operations, and (b) to replace the "read and write disk images" code of the goapple2 emulator.
Installing/updating
Assuming you have Go installed, run go get -u github.com/zellyn/diskii
Short-term TODOs/roadmap
- Build per-platform binaries for Linux, MacOS, Windows
- Implement CATALOG, deletion, and creation of files in DOS 3.3 images
