For those who don’t know. The TI Treffen  is a historic European gathering of TI-99/4A  enthusiasts  from  all  over  the  world,  has  taken  place  since  1986  and  is organized every year in a different city.

This year, for the second time, it is Italy’s turn to  host  this  beautiful  and  long-awaited  event. The TI-99 Italian User Club is organizing this event in the Italian capital! The TI-99/4A will be the protagonist of this full immersion.

The live auction and competition section with available TI-99 material must  not  be  missed.  And  see  also  the  presentation  of  new  hardware  and  mini-conferences-on-topics-concerning-the-TI-99.

CBMXfer is a front-end to several command-line utilities for transferring files and working with disk images. CBMXfer makes using those utilities easy by providing a familiar windows interface that removes the need to learn the commandline syntax of each program. CBMXfer also includes a multi-format file and picture viewer.

The commandline utilities are:

• OPENCBM – transfers files/images to/from a real CBM drive connected via an ‘X-cable’ on the parallel port.
• CBMLINK – transfers files/images to/from a real CBM drive connected to a real CBM computer connected to the PC via a serial cable.
• C1541 – a utility from VICE that works with CBM Image Files (ie: D64,D71,D81 files).
• NIBTOOLS – Utilities to transfer images via parallel port. Supports protected disks.
• IMGCOPY – Utility to image IEEE and 1581 disks.

What can I do with it?

• Transfer files to or from real CBM drives
• Create D64 and other images files from real CBM disks
• Write D64 and other files back to real CBM disks
• Transfer files from WITHIN Image Files
• View Commodore files (BASIC, SEQ, Binary, ML, Chr Sets, and Images). Supports all all machine types
• ML viewer is a full two-pass symbolic disassembler!
• Simple file operations like copy, delete, rename
• Launch VICE and attach disk images plus autorun
• Zoom Floppy supported.
• Supports 1581 partitions with OpenCBM
• Format disks
• Supports IEEE drives with Zoom Floppy
• Supports reading/writing/viewing P00 files.
