![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In recent times, people start to get suspicious about Java and call it a "security thread". TIMT is written in pure Java, which is the probably best choice, because it should run on all platforms that MAME is also running on (at least Linux, Windows, Mac). However, working with the command line tool proves to be quite limited, since it contains mainly those operations that work across different emulated platforms, and there are so much more things that could be helpful. This tool is used to create and change disk images. I designed and developed TIMT since 2011 as an alternative to the command line tool imgtool that is part of MAME. In the simplest way, a disk image is a sequence of the sector contents from 0 to 359 for a SSSD disk, or more, depending on the format. Disk images are files that hold the complete contents of a floppy or hard disk in terms of sector contents they are not archive files. TIImageTool - sometimes also called TIMT by me - is a Java-based tool for easy working with disk images that are used by many emulators, notably MAME. ![]()
