Re: A92: romconv problem
Hello,
I was the first to try (and successfully complete) a transfer an ASCII
romdump through the TI-Graphlink, using a technique suggested by Tybstar
(thanks Tim). At first, I finished the ASCII dump, and captured the text.
When I tried romconv, though, it would, as has been mentioned, stop
randomly during conversion (mine stopped VERY close to the end most of the
time). I deleted the old one, though, so I didn't get a chance to check
the size (I think the sizes were different), even though I used the same
process to recieve the dump. I dunno if it was my dump or the program that
messed up, but in the end it worked. So let it be known that there is
emulator hope for those with TI-Graphlinks.
