tool for converting binaries into .tap files - nitrofurano - 09-29-2011

btw, sorry if i'm posting this in a wrong place if it looks offtopic - i don't know where else to post it...

as i think some people here missed tools for converting binary files into .tap , i recoded this converter in python, which i don't know if this can be useful for you
(i think LCD knows the sdlBasic and Amos versions of this converter i coded since around 10 years ago)

maybe a tool like this would be missing on the Boriel's zx-basic compiler package?

(btw, it provides a weird bug, the binary files are opening fine on Fbzx emulator, but not in Fuse... (both Linux versions) - i don't know what i'm doing wrong )

(btw, i think this can be a kind of Fuse bug, since if the conversion wouldn't work, this project wouldn't work as well: http://nitrofurano.altervista.org/experimental/webcampictureson8bitcomputers/index.html - but it's weird why the binary files from WOS repository works there on Fuse, and my bin2tap conversions doesn't - the converter is based on reverse engineering results from that old Dan Fry's Spectrum Tape Explorer 1.0 (which works fine on Wine) )
