Contents of this archive:

- ARC.MAC, HID.MAC, RDO.MAC and SYS.MAC
  Tools to set file attributes. They started out as tests, but may prove quite useful.

- CHARKILL.ASM, CHARLOAD.ASM and CHAR-OBJ.ASM
  Even though CHARKILL.ASM is implemented in CHARLOAD.ASM it was decided to release it
  after all. CHAR-OBJ.ASM loads a character set into V-RAM in MSX-DOS. It also enables
  to make that character set permanent for that particular session when adding a hexa-
  decimal address as paramater. These are part of a yet unreleased package to exchange
  MSX and a PC font system.

- CHKDRIVE.ASM
  Was made especially for the MSX turbo R (FS-a1GT) for the internal S-RAM disk that's
  used by MSX-View to store certain settings in. With this tool it's possible to some-
  what add some stuff to the booting sequence.

- CHKRMDRV.ASM
  This small tool will resize any existing ramdisk. I can't remember why I wrote it in
  the first place. Probably as a small test tool.

- CPU.ASM and CPU-TSR.ASM
  These tools enable you to view or change the MSX turbo R CPU mode. In MSX-DOS2 there
  will be an environment item to store the state. Quite useful when you want it to use
  in batch files. CPU-TSR has an additional feature that will store a small TSR.

- ET2.GEN and ET21BIN.ASM
  I noticed a ET.TSR once roaming the Bulletin Board Systems once. It translated every
  Basic error message to Dutch. I noticed quite some strange translation errors and it
  was decided I'd redo the whole thing. Using a disassembler I noticed how it was done
  and fixed the translations. Strange enough, disk errors weren't translated yet and I
  added those as well as well as DOS2 error messages. These versions are simple BLOAD-
  versions that will be stored under Basic ROM. ET21BIN.ASM also includes a translated
  prompt that overlaps any existing prompt without changing in the clockchip.

- KMODE.ASM
  A Kanji mode changer that will run under DOS1 as well.

- KUN-LOAD.ASM
  This thing will install the KUN Basic compiler ROM under Basic ROM not overwriting a
  single byte in Basic memory, since it'll use an unused mapper block. The loader does
  need to load the correct version, which means the rom image that has the _BC init.

- MSXVER.ASM
  Will put the MSX version in a DOS2 environment variable. Useful when you want to run
  a part only on a particular MSX version in batch files.

- PAC.MAC
  Switch on the MSX-MUSIC part of your FM-PAC. It can also be switched off again.

- ROMLOAD.ASM
  Loads a ROM image into a Konami Sound-Cartridge (Snatcher or SD-Snatcher). Many game
  types are supported and also subdirs are supported.

- SETANK.MAC, SETKANJI.MAC and VDP.MAC
  Part of the Kanji tools. Info is in the sources.

- SKIN.ASM, SKIN11.ASM and SKIN12.ASM
  Additional to the Magic MWM Player by NWO. It enables you to easilly set a different
  skin for Magic MWM Player.

- V9990.ASM and V9SWITCH.ASM
  My very first V9990 tools. Even though V9SWITCH.ASM is implemented in V9990.ASM, you
  may find it useful.

- VDP1.MAC
  Change VDP interrupt setting using MSX-DOS.
