In DEC format +dviqms is slightly faster, but if you have a versetec or other driver that +requires the fonts in non-DEC order you may need it. Check the files via +a dump command for the first word (currently 101). + + Pack.exe will convert 8-byte records of pixel files into 512 bytes. It +uses fixformat.com, or rather fixform.com uses pack to accomplish this. The +pixel tape can be read by using read.com. read.com reads the 8192byte records +as 8-byte records. This seems to be the easy out since the Stanford tape has +some short records at the end of each pixel. You can use file1.;1 from the +pixel tape and edt to accomplish this task. + + Of course these steps will not be needed if you are a normal user. + + + |
