Executable Image release 2 released by MagerValp / M&M

Executable Image is a perversely over-engineered solution to a very simple problem: how do I convert a Koala image into an executable program? The sane solution would be to fire up an assembler, write about a page of code copying color ram, set up the VIC, and then pucrunch or exomize it to get a sys line.

Scout released a .bat file that does pretty much all that, and it gets the job done. The implementation gave me an itch that I just had to scratch
though.

Executable Image is available for MacOsx / Linux Binary (sources included).
