- What is it ?
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Tapefit is a simple(ish) utility that attempts to find the best possible
- arrangement of a given set of tracks on a cassette of a given length. It
- will try to make both sides as full as possible, but leave the end of side 2
- blank if there are insufficient tracks to fill the whole tape. If there are
- more tracks than will fit, the best fitting ones will be chosen.
-
- RISC OS 2
- ~~~~~~~~~
- Although I haven't been able to test it, the command line program should
- run under RISC OS 2. The Wimp front end is RISC OS 3+ only I'm afraid.
- If the tapefit executable won't run, you could always try recompiling the
- source under RISC OS 2. If there's any demand, I'll write a RISC OS 2
- front end [I'll need someone with RO2 to test it].
-
- Command Line
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Inside !TapeFit is the executable 'tapefit'. This can be used without
- the front end, simply copy it to somewhere on your Run$Path (eg. your
- Library directory). It's probably best to run tapefit in a taskwindow,
- so you can save the results to a file. See the document 'CLusage'
- inside !TapeFit for details of command line usage.
