==================================================
This is the OS/2 port of trx2x, a rework on the original trx2x
format conversion program.
For more information, please check the included README.md file.
In the src\ directory you will find the sources together with
a simple command line script to rebuild this under any modern
GCC version on OS/2.
I also added here a really simple Hobeta to TRD REXX script to
convert an entire directory of Hobeta files. Please notice, though,
that this will create a TRD disk image for every file converted, so
e.g. if you have 5 hobeta files pertaining to a single program you will
end up with 5 TRD files which may be useless. As usual, don't delete
anything until you tried the results!
If you feel my work is useful, please drop me a note at my email
address or on any social network (you can find me on facebook,
threads, instagram or even linkedin). I'm open to suggestions or
requests, and I will gladly accept sponsoring my projects to help
me keeping my work on OS/2 development.
