What do I do with these files ? " ! "

May look newbie question but...

A!MAMBA#17
B!MAMBA#17
X!MAMBA#17

When I run the last file in Vice it says 10 packed files.

How do I unpack those files?

If you mean c64 zipped file, named like
1!xxx
2!xxx
3!xxx
4!xxx

then use zip2d64 or 64copy

1!filename, 2!filename, 3!filename, 4!filename
is ZipCode DiskPack

a!filename, b!filename, x!filename
is ZipCode FilePack

1!!filename, 2!!filename, 3!!filename, 4!!filename, 5!!filename, 6!!filename
is ZipCode SixPack

Zip-Collection V2.0 should help you.

that and .lnx were the default release formats for the boards. every crack that was firstreleased, was uploaded as a onefiler, .lnx or c64zipped disk (the 1!..4! stuff).

tdd (ftp://ftp.scs-trc.net/pub/c64/) used the same formats for years, until .d64 became the defacto standard as emulators took over the world.

A! B! X! - can be an arc format SelFeXpanding (SFX)

1!-4! - use unzip/zip

1!-6! - use 6-pack

LNX - use unlynx/delynx


As mentioned above, search here first, you might find what you want online already.
