It includes three programs for converting text files in MLX format to binaries on an MS-DOS machine. For those who don't know, MLX was a program used in Compute!"s Gazette for entering machine language programs. With my programs, you just need to scan in the listing, convert to text via OCR, then use one of the programs to convert. The files included are: MLXPC.EXE - for converting older MLX files (decimal) MLXPC2.EXE - for converting newer MLX II files (hex) FLANK.EXE - for converting Ahoy magazine Flankspeed programs. MLXPC.C MLXPC2.C FLANK.C - source files for the above programs. The source is in ANSI C, so converting to LINUX or some other platform shouldn't be too difficult.
