Feature request: Support for compressed (zipped) sdcard image files #82

Closed indigodarkwolf closed 8 months ago

It would be useful if Box16 supported the ability to open and work with sdcard image files that were compressed.

I don't know but wouldn't this potentially make #83 a lot harder to implement?

indigodarkwolf commented 1 year ago

If an SD card image is "attached" in the emulator, it wouldn't/shouldn't use the hostfs CBM-DOS hooks. I think that's a bug in Box16 right now, actually -- it seems it's always using hostfs now, ignoring the SD card image entirely, and I don't know if anyone else has noticed yet. Whoops.

Oh but I was confused myself here as well, to be honest!! I admit mixing up sdcard/hostfs too!

Implemented with #86.
