Subject: Re: importing graphics to mm?
when i edit them in the SGE, the tape never
loads as a
consequence of my meddling.
.TAP files have checksums. If you change a byte,
the checksum won't be correct afterwards.
The easiest solution is to TAPSPLIT the file beforehand, edit the extracted chunks, and
re-TAPCAT it
afterwards.
Actually, the *easiest* solution is to use SPECSAISIE FixChecksum - just run the edited .TAP
file through that, and it fixes the checksums! :-)
