Cannot save permanently on disk (TRDOS) #64

Closed Alessandro1970 closed 2 years ago

Alessandro1970 commented 2 years ago

Hi, I have formatted a TRDOS Disk then I have saved a file and verified it by CAT command. If I quit ZxPoly after restarting the changes on that disk are lost, is there any possibilities to export changes saving the disk or something other to make permanent those changes ?

Thanks

emulator will show dialog about non saved disk changes and you can flush them into file through press the button in the dialog image

Ok, it worked, thanks

I have improved SNAPSHOT, now it makes pre-formatted TRDOS disks

Where is the command to create new disks ? In which menu is it ?

raydac commented 2 years ago

when you select trdos disk then you can enter name of non existing file and it will be created as pre-formatted trd

Ok, no so intuitive for all of whom that haven't read this. Could be added a command in the first menu' befor Load Disk ? Create TR-Dos Disk

So all of us and the future users could be use it easy

I think it is good idea to add explicit command to create TRD disk

Your is a great emulator, should be known and used by many people for the noumerous assets. Great z80 compatibility, great virtual keyboards. ...some improvments in the menu' and in ULA compatibility than it will be a great goal !

Certainly ZxPoly is and will be a great and very versatile emulator. I really like it a lot and for some time now it's the only ZxSpectrum emulator that I use on both Mac and PC. At this point, if the two tests you have put (Timing_Tests-48k and Woody's Special) will be satisfied, I think the emulator will be really mature and robust. Who knows what it would have been like if it was released from java and reprogrammed only in C / C ++ with other related benefits and speed of code...

I have added in SNAPSHOT, new file menu item "Create empty disk"
