πŸ’Ύ fsed.cpm β€” edit a CP/M file system πŸ’Ύ

okay bestie, so this is a manual page for fsed.cpm(1), a User commands one, and it's literally the tool that lets you edit a CP/M file system and I'm obsessed 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

fsed.cpm [-f format] [-u] image

that's it. that's the whole vibe check right there πŸ’…


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so fsed.cpm edits a CP/M file system that lives on an image file or a device. it's giving main character energy because it actually knows about the system area, the directory area, and the data area β€” and it uses sector skew on the last two. yes, the last two. not the first one. slay πŸŽ€

it decodes directory entries too, so you're not out here staring at raw bytes like πŸ™ˆ

and the interactive usage? self-explanatory. it literally explains itself. no cap. you just open it and it tells you what's up ✨


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

  • -f format β€” use the given CP/M disk format instead of the default format. i.e. when the default format isn't the moment, you pick your own 🌈
  • -T libdsk-type β€” the libdsk driver type, bestie. like tele for Teledisk images or raw for raw images. heads up though: this one requires building cpmtools with support for libdsk πŸ’€ (iykyk)
  • -u β€” show all CP/M file names in UPPER CASE. SCREAMING. PERIODT. πŸ‘‘

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

upon successful completion, exit code 0 is returned. we love a happy ending πŸ’–


😭 ERRORS 😭

any errors are indicated by exit code 1. not me getting a 1 😭


🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

  • CPMTOOLSFMT β€” the Default format. that's the whole thing. she's simple, she's iconic ✨

πŸŽ€ FILES πŸŽ€

  • /etc/cpmtools/diskdefs β€” CP/M disk format definitions πŸ¦‹
