There is nobody that has thought to create one utility for convert a real TRD disk to .trd file and viceversa for
Sprinter ??

Today we have information that this utility is created by Alex Luskin, already. We will receive it for testing this week.

TRD Files can be converted to real disc using the "Real Spectrum" emulator. Oh, and I forgot... It works vica versa too.

Thank's.
I know very well RS it's fantastic!
For the PC there's also other utility ZX-Navigator, AMD Copy;
but I don't want use a PC ;)
I want use the Sprinter !

is this program ready now?

i mean, one that works both disk -> trd-file and trd-file -> disk?

TRD Creator is available for download as you know, I hope. But it can not create TR-DOS disk from TRD file still.
BTW, anybody use Extended Basic commands of 'Sprinter ZX' mode for creation of such utilityes? It's not so hard.

TWIX utility was created as example of usage of Extended TR-DOS commands of
'Sprinter ZX' mode.
By this way, you can create real batch file. This utility serves for quick
creation of two TR-DOS RAM-disks.

Usage.

Execute TWIX.TRD and answer "Y" to program question.

Utility will create two RAM-disks ("G" and "H" RAM-disks on TR-DOS "C" and
TR-DOS "D" drives), set a floppy disk drive to TR-DOS "A" drive and select
TR-DOS "C" drive as current drive.
Finally, utility executes Spectrum file manager, which was included in the
TWIX.TRD file too.

So, you will have two RAM-disks, working file manager and possibility to
use real TR-DOS disks with 'A' drive.

Package of TWIX.TRD file :
