| 2 | The Paper Tape Project -- User space paper tape reader |
|---|
| 3 | ===================================================== |

|---|
| 5 | This ppdev userspace driver drives the GHIELMETTI FER 201. Most |
|---|
| 6 | things from the puncher driver also apply here, especially the |
|---|
| 7 | setoff-strobe program which stops the reader from running all |
|---|
| 8 | the time. |
|---|
| 9 | |
|---|
| 10 | Usage of reader[.c]: |
|---|
| 11 | |
|---|
| 12 | $ ./reader > read-in-file.bin |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | The program is not really completed, thus it won't correctly |
|---|
| 15 | detect the end of the paper tape, but it stops automatically |
|---|
| 16 | some time after the paper tape run out. You should use your |
|---|
| 17 | favourite binary file editor to beautify the read in file |
|---|
| 18 | a bit, alternatively you can use the strip-null-bytes program |
|---|
| 19 | from the perl-tools directory to strip the file: |
|---|
| 20 | |
|---|
| 21 | $ ./reader | ../perl-tools/strip-null-bytes > read-in.bin |
|---|

| 23 | See reader.c for more information and copyright information. |
