ASCII Tools was initially created in 1988 by KSL and developped until the end of 2004. Its virgin name was CPCWRITE. For many years, CPCWRITE was left unfinished. In 2004, the grow of interest for the CPC machines in the internet pushed the development of ASCII Tools. The main task was to create a set of tools to deal with big source code files like C, Fortran, Turbo Pascal, transferred from Windows or MS-DOS Systems to Amstrad machines. In 2004, ASCII Tools v.1  was presented at the [[COM II|CPC Meeting II]] organized by [[TFM]]

ASCII Tools

ASCII Tools for CP/M-80 are a set of tools that can be used in order to process very large ASCII text files. They can be useful to programmers, editors and authors who want to have their source codes or articles respectively, saved in a single ASCII file on the CPC6128. ASCII Tools have been under development since 1988 by KSL. The virgin name of the software was CPC-WRITE. In 2004, the first simple version of ASCII Tools for CP/M plus was presented at the CPC Meeting II organized by TFM. The next version of ASCII Tools was included in COSMOS application in 2021. In 2026-2027 a new stand-alone version will be released for CP/M plus, which will support Text, Graphics and Page Switching.
