I must be missing something here...

I've been looking for a way, without a cable, without loading 68757 emulators on my laptop (already up to 3) to be able to pick out a .atr image file (or similar), "mount" it in whichever OS (OS X, Windows whatever or Linux) and just get a view of the .atr's contents. Is there a quick and dirty way of doing this? I'd love to be able to screenshot everything so that I have directory listing images, or even hardcopy, but this isn't a requirement. I just want to know "ok, disk123.atr has game xyzzy" on it, load that in the emulator or SIO2whatever and go play! Help?

Tangental to this, but related: I've wanted this functionality as part of the OS for a long, long time.

 

What might be ideal would be to develop support for .ATR, .XEX, etc. images in FUSE. I haven't really looked into it since I just don't have the time right now to make it happen, but the image formats are well-documented so one hurdle is at least already cleared. Where this is cool is that you could conceivably mount other types of Atari images as well (cartridges, for example).

 

FUSE really only works well under Linux presently (MacFUSE is pretty horrible, IMHO, and I have no idea about the Windows port), but it may be a quick route to making this a real possibility.

I only vaguely knew about this. I'm surprised they've built for Solaris and Hurd! If I get some time to play with one of the Windows ports, I'll report back (I'll do the non-CIFS/SMB ones as I don't need those network protocols at home).

I wrote a small program, "adir", which is part of my AtariSIO for Linux package. It lists the (DOS 2.x/MyDOS) directory of a given ATR, and hase a few additional options (single/multicolumn output using "-1", "-2", "-3", ... , "-r" outputs start sectors and length of files, "-t" activates a tree-view and recurses into MyDOS subdirectories). Just type "adir *.atr" and you have a complete catalog of your files.

 

AtariSIO is available from my homepage http://www.horus.com/~hias/atari/, just download the latest development snapshot, the last official release is really quite outdated...

 

so long,

Woo! I'll try that on my Lubuntu box tomorrow. Thanks!

Well,

 

there is also XDIR by Bo and Ernest Schreurs which can list the contents of ATR images in DOS 2.x and Sparta format. If you want to have the contents of all your ATR images in one big list (e.g. to print it out and hang it onto the wall) there is XDIRLIST also by these two guys. I am running these PC programs under MS-DOS 6.22 (on a slow 550 Mhz Dual-BIOS 128MB PC harhar), have not tested them under any other OS...

 

If you configure XDIR and save the config-file in the maindir C: you can then also extract files from an ATR image by simply hitting Return/Enter while on that ATR (it will extract all A8 files onto your PC harddisk then)...

XDIR and DIR2ATR are running fine in the DOS Windows from Win95, Win98, Win2000 and WinXP. http://members.home.nl/stack/Atari/atarixle.html

 

 

There is also ATRDIR for DOS set-up's but never really used it myself.
