Have a look at libpipi for clues:

And PictConv too:

Probably you can learn a lot from just those two projects by reading their sources..

What I think would be useful is if we could get FUSE drivers written that can handle the Oric disk format, and then be able to use FUSE with any media that are available - SD, CF, etc.

Didn't know that WinXP didn't allow raw block i/o access to the floppy drive ..

I don't get it - is WinXP running natively on your PC? Because then you should be able to just gain raw access to the A: drive (assuming you've got a real floppy drive) and off it goes - read from A:, write to a C:\TMP\ folder, or something? But .. if you've got WinXP in a virtual machine, say you'r...

I second the call for a chance to work on the cross-platform port of this tool - I only have a Windows VM for the Oric tools, and wouldn't be using it otherwise .. it'd be seriously nice to be able to use Oric tools on either Linux (preferred) or OSX (also good) ..

Well I can find one in the stash that qualifies. What do you want to swap for it?

Ah, you want one that *doesn't* work!? I've got one of those .. Still interested?

(EDIT: I've got 8 Atmo's, an Oric-1 and a Telestrat .. thats why I'm willing to trade a spare for something else..)

Yes, it works great!

As it happens, I have a spare Atmos in my collection which I was thinking about lately .. it'd sort of be nice to have something else in the collection. So if anyone is interested in swapping, I'm willing to trade a perfect working-order Atmos, in original box, for .. anything really. Make me an off...

Another vote for Github here .. and for AmigaOS, there's sgit:

Oh, 'tis a shame you feel that way, but I also wish to thank you for the hard work and energy you put into providing this valuable resource .. if you want my opinion, GameBase Oric simply wasn't promoted well enough to get it out there, and was always too hard to actually get .. but now you're using...

Brilliant!

That is indeed a fascinating story - and it makes me wonder why we're not using these energy-harvesting devices more avidly .. seems to me that the same energy being stored in a spring could be used to drive micro-electronics, piezo-style, sooner or later.. Would be great to know whether these devic...

Maybe it shows up differently for different folks .. for me its definitely a hassle - I fired up a browser in VM, created a fake email address, and downloaded it that way - but thats not your average every day click of a URL.

A better service might be mega?

Is there any chance you could put this on a site where it doesn't try to infect my system with a trojan (MacKeeper is a trojan), and/or doesn't require the ability to post to my social media accounts?
