A tool collection for processing tzx files
Project description
tzxtools
This is a collection of command line tools for processing TZX files.
TZX is a common file format for preserving computer tapes of the ZX Spectrum, but also Amstrad CPC and C64. tzxtools
mainly supports ZX Spectrum TZX files, but raw file operations can be applied on any TZX file.
Features
- Convert your old ZX Spectrum tape recordings into TZX files.
- List, split, merge, and divide the blocks inside TZX files.
- Extract binary content from TZX blocks.
- Read hex dumps, disassembled Z80 machine code, or ZX Spectrum BASIC code.
- Convert ZX Spectrum screens to PNG files.
- Generate TAP files for ZX Spectrum Next and some emulators.
- Disassembler also supports all undocumented Z80 instructions and Z80N (ZX Spectrum Next) instructions.
