This page presents several utilities that I have developped for the Atari. These programs run on Windows and are have been released in the public domain.
You might also be interested by other projects that I have done:
AIR Project
The AIR (Atari Image-file Reader-Writer) project is a public domain project.
It is composed of a collection of programs that demonstrate how to read or write several of the Image file formats used by the Atari.
The provided sources can be used as a reasonable starting point if you need to read or write image files.
Another interest is that while reading or writing the different image files formats the programs display a lot of information about the internal content of the file. It can therefore be used in conjunction with the image file format description to better understand this format.
The programs have a basic WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) Graphical User Interface and are developed in C#.
Currently the AIR project is composed of

The different Atari image file formats are described in my Atari FD Image Format page and specific documentations can be downloaded from Atari Documentation from DrCoolZic page.

- Pasti File Documentation: I have written a complete documentation about the Pasti file format. This documentation is based on information collected in the Web as well as long email discussion with the inventor Ijor.
- The Pasti File Reader-Writer Program: This program reads and writes Pasti STX files. The reader and writer display detailed information about the data and metatdata inside STX file. Along with the STX documentation it can help you to better understand the STX file format.
The program is provided as a Microsoft ClickOnce application therefore you just need to run the program setup once. The program will be updated automatically whenever a new version is published. - Pasti program developer's documentation: Preliminary HTML documentation about the Pasti source program done with Doxygen
IPF File Reader / Writer
- IPF File Documentation: I have written a complete documentation about the IPF file format. This documentation is based on information collected in the Web as well as email discussion with the inventor Istvan.
- IPF/IPX Image-File Reader-Writer: This program reads and writes IPF and IPX files. The reader and writer display detailed information about the data and metatdata inside an IPF/IPX file. Along with the IPF documentation it can help you to better understand the IPF file format.

KF File Reader / Writer
- KF File Documentation: I have written a complete documentation about the KF file format. This documentation is based on information provided by Istvan.
- KF Image-File Reader: This program reads IPF and IPX files. The reader display detailed information about the data and metatdata inside an KF stream file.
The program is provided as a Microsoft ClickOnce application therefore you just need to run the program setup once. The program will be updated automatically whenever a new version is published.
