This is a good idea but it is not completely straightforward. The most promising converter so far mentioned in the stardot thread at https://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=15516, epsonps, could be integrated as it...

When it comes to the possibility of embedding a converter the main part that could usefully live inside an emulator such as B-Em but currently doesn't is an ESC/P converter....

I have also had another idea - does Windows have a reasonable implementation of the popen library function? If so, it would be possible to have b-em automatically start and...

OK, there is a branch that implements this: https://github.com/stardot/b-em/tree/sf/issue66 I've tested it on Linux and it works. I have also tested cross-compiling for Windows and it gets at least that...

It is a bug, in the sense that the emulation of the 1770 is supposed to accept write track commands in such a way that no error is generated but...

I have pushed a fix to this to a new branch for the time being: https://github.com/stardot/b-em/tree/sf/issue170 An interesting observation on the Acorn formatter - it seems to set the head...

I attempted to write the code that processes write track so it wouldn't get stuck or do anything crazy but as you mentioned the failure possibly being with a DSD...

It would certainly be nice to do this. Does that screen appear every time you run it or just the first time for a newly downloaded executable? On a technical...
