Useful tools
Here are some tools that I have written that may be useful for working
with George 3:
A PERL script to write a NEWCOPYOUT tape from a Linux system. Allows
copying of NORMAL (upper/lowercase) files from Linux to George. Can be
used to avoid problems with the bugs in the
g3ee tape reader emulation.
The script can be found here: newcopyout.pl.
A PERL script to be used instead of telnet. Does more exact
character code translations, working around the
strange coding used for the pound sign.
Works at its best with a version of the ICL 7903 emulator that has been
modified not to strip control characters.
The script can be found here: iclterm.
A simple text file comparison program written in Ratfor:
compare.rat.
