Summary Submitted by hedning on 9 January 2014
mkd64
mkd64 is a modular tool for creating .D64 images (disk images for a C64 floppy drive). The core program is responsible for writing tracks and sectors, while loadable modules do everything else, for example writing a directory.
usage
The mkd64 command line works like a minimal scripting language: It starts with global options for loading modules and specifying things like output files or the disk name. The first '-f' options switches to file mode, every file starts with '-f' and an optional name to load from your harddrive and ends with '-w' for writing the file to the disk image.
mkd64 will never complain about unknown options but silently ignore them. This is because every option gets also fed to every loaded module, so modules can extend the available options.
features
can create images without directory
module 'cbmdos' writes directory in original format (sector interleave 4)
module API for other directory formats
interleave can be specified per file
can create a 'map file' containing files and their start track/sector
start track and sector of a file can be specified explicitly
for lots of files on the image, options may be read from a file
build
In short: just type 'make'. You will need GNU make and the GCC C-compiler for this to work. For windows, use MinGW (and DON'T use MSYS, because the Makefile assumes the shell to be CMD.EXE).
install
Put mkd64 (or mkd64.exe) and all modules (*.so or *.dll) in the same directory. That's it.
binaries
I create win32 binaries for every tagged release in-tree, see directory win32bin. There's also a directory win64bin, but no guarantee this will be updated every time. In fact, right now mkd64 doesn't take any advantage of 64bit on windows, it just gets bigger, so there's not much of a point, as long as WoW64 clobbers any windows installation anyways ;)
help
type 'mkd64 -h' to get an overview of all core options. type 'mkd64 -h [module]' for help with module [module].
modules
cbmdos
This module reserves track 18 and uses it to write the BAM and directory entries like an original floppy dos. Use 'mkd64 -h cbmdos' for details.
xtracks
This module provides tracks 36-40 and an option to write BAM entries in DOLPHIN DOS and/or SPEED DOS format
module API
See modapi.txt. Documentation is still work in progress.
