IPF is not an open format. (Or rather, has not been one when I checked their site lately.) Certainly they provide compiled libraries, but not for the AVR.
Argh, I'm not so keen on softpress. But I am keen on IPF.
Can we ask them nicely? Ask them to start behaving more like good internet amigians, and less like... I'll be carefull so that I don't get smacked over the head with the posting guidelines.
But I would like to see the floppy emulator in a 3.5" form factor, and with ADF and IPF read and write capabilities.
What are the buttons and LCD screen used for?
For an amiga user I think there should be the following funtionality:
Button 1: Instert empty disk on card (Empty non formated disk is sensed by the amiga
Button 2: Switch between *.adf or *.ipf
Button 3: Cycle between images (
, *1.adf|ipf, *2.adf|ipf, etc etc)
I see that button 2 can cycle between more formats for other platforms, and that more buttons can be made to make use of the lcd and add a simple gui. But I think that for day to day usage it should adhere to KISS as much as possible?
