it could certainly interest some people. For me, after a long wait, I decided to write my own tools. Like that at least, I do not depend on anyone ^^

Sorry! The clean up still hasn't happened. One day maybe!

I don't think I did anything more than removing the temporary file creation call (a horrible hack).

Out of curiosity, what do your own tools do?

No problem! This motivated me to start from scratch, to understand how the DMS format works and why we have problems with certain file.
My tool is far from being finished but it is tested by some members of the TOSEC team.
Feature:
- File decompression DMS 1.xx and 2.xx (of course)
- Automatic Decoding
- Merge files
- Identification of the content based on the analysis of the tracks and on the database TOSEC
- Identification of the bootblock
- Repair damage caused by some viruses
- Display files present (or deleted) on the disc with an estimate of their health
- and some other stuff ...
