module Z80::TAP

Adds the TAP format support to your program.

Example:

puts Z80::TAP.parse_file("examples/calculator.tap").to_a

Program: "calculator" LINE 10 (226/226)
Bytes: "calculator" CODE 32768,61

# convert a TZX file to a TAP file (may not work for custom loaders)
Z80::TAP.parse_file('foobar.tzx') {|t| t.save_tap('foobar', append:true) }

Program.import_file will make use of Z80::TAP.read_data. Pass additional :index => n argument to Program.import_file to choose n'th chunk from a tap file.

import_file 'somefile.tap', :index => 2

You may

include Z80::TAP

in your Z80 Program class and instances of it will be enriched by the three additional methods:

In fact this mixin may be used on any class as long as either:

The method to_tap_chunk may be overridden to create other TAP file types. The default implementation creates a TYPE_CODE file based on code and org properties of the base class. The custom implementation may use one of the: TAP::HeaderBody.new_code, TAP::HeaderBody.new_program, TAP::HeaderBody.new_var_array helper methods to construct a proper TAP::HeaderBody instance.

Constants

Body

A struct which represents the body chunk of a TAP file. Property data is a binary string containing the body data.

A struct which represents the header chunk of a TAP file.

Header struct properties:

  • type - 0 - program, 1 - number array, 2 - character array, 3 - code.

  • name as a string.

  • length the expected bytesize of the following body chunk as an integer.

  • p1 as an integer.

  • p2 as an integer.

For a program:

  • line returns the starting line of a program.

  • prog_length returns the length in bytes of the program itself.

  • vars_length returns the length in bytes of the variables data.

For a number or character array:

  • array_name returns the original variable name.

  • array_head returns the header octet of the original variable.

For a code:

  • address, addr and org returns the original code address.

read_chunk(filename, name:nil, index:nil) { |chunk| ... } click to toggle source

Reads a TAP::HeaderBody chunk from a TAP file.

Pass additional :name argument to search for the header name or a :index => n argument to choose the n'th chunk (1-based) from a file.

Pass a block to visit a chunk.

# File lib/z80/tap.rb, line 359
def read_chunk(filename, name:nil, index:nil)
        parser = parse_file(filename)
        chunk, = if name.nil?

        else
                chunk
        end
end
read_data(filename, **opts) click to toggle source

Reads a data chunk from a TAP file. Returns a binary string.

Program.import_file uses this method to read from a TAP file.

See read_chunk for opts.

# File lib/z80/tap.rb, line 339
def read_data(filename, **opts)
        TAP.read_chunk(filename, **opts) do |chunk|
                if chunk.header
                        $stderr.puts "Importing: `#{filename}': (#{chunk.header.name})"
                else
                        $stderr.puts "Importing: `#{filename}': headerless chunk"
                end
                return chunk.body.data
        end
        raise "Chunk: #{index} not found in a TAP file: `#{filename}`"
end

Public Instance Methods

save_tap(filename, append:false, name:nil, **opts) click to toggle source

Saves self in a TAP file.

The tap data is being generated by to_tap_chunk.

filename specifies the file name to save to. The “.tap” extension may be omitted.

Options:
  • :name should contain max 10 ascii characters. If not given, the base name of a filename will be used instead.

  • :append if true the data will be appended to the file. Otherwise the file is being truncated.

Any additional option will be passed to the to_tap_chunk method.

# File lib/z80/tap.rb, line 77
def save_tap(filename, append:false, name:nil, **opts)
        name = File.basename(filename, '.tap') unless name
        to_tap_chunk(name, **opts).save_tap filename, append:append
end
to_tap(name, **opts) click to toggle source

Produces a TAP blob as a binary string from self.

A sugar for calling TAP::HeaderBody#to_tap method on the result produced by to_tap_chunk.

name should contain max 10 ascii characters. Any options given will be passed to the to_tap_chunk method.

# File lib/z80/tap.rb, line 88
def to_tap(name, **opts)
        to_tap_chunk(name, **opts).to_tap
end
to_tap_chunk(name, org:nil) click to toggle source

Creates a TAP::HeaderBody chunk from self.

By default it uses Z80#code and the Z80#org to produce the tap data.

This method is used by to_tap and save_tap.

name should contain max 10 ascii characters. Optionally org may be given to override the starting code address.

# File lib/z80/tap.rb, line 100
def to_tap_chunk(name, org:nil)
        HeaderBody.new_code(name, code, org||self.org)
end
