Bas2Tap bugs report

Post by waskol »

Hello !

Well, well, translating Tyran in English and developping windows tools, I report here 2 major bugs with involving Bas2Tap, in the OSDK.

The first, aready reported bug :
- When A BASIC listing starts by line number 0, Bas2Tap fails.

Second bug :
- In the resulting tap file, the end address is not "coded" as it should in the Header. The End address is computed like this :

Code: Select all

End_Address=Start_Address+File_Size
And it should be computed like that !

Code: Select all

End_Address=Start_Address+File_Size-1
-----------------------------------
Let's assume a 1 byte program, it starts at address #501 and ends at address #501 !
----------------------------------

The real Oric codes it right !

The only workaround so far : rework tap file with an HexEditor... :cry:
