💖 kc2wav — the manual, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let's talk about kc2wav from the General Commands Manual (section 1, the commands girlies). She converts KC files into audio files, .WAV format, that's literally her whole job. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

kc2wav <infile> <outfile>

that's it. two arguments. in goes one file, out comes the other. iconic, no notes 💅

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so kc2wav takes the following file types and converts them to raw KC tape images. here's the lineup, bestie, in order, don't skip any:

1. the files used by the KC emulator by Arne Fitzenreiter — usually named .TAP 🦋
2. the files used by the GEMINI-SOFT KC emulator — usually named .GPF for machine code files and .GBF for basic files 🌈
3. BASIC files — usually named .SSS 🍓
4. KC image files that contain the data written by the KC tape routines, without block number and checksum — usually named .KCC, or .KCB where the .KCB files are BASIC files with an autostart routine 👑

lowkey that's the whole description. short queen, says what she needs to say. periodt. 💜

💀 BUGS 💀

Basic files are not handled properly. yeah. we know. it's giving "known issue, moving on" 😭🙈
