> Q to list: how can I make a ROMdump from BASIC?

Here is how I did this on my M100 using TS-DOS and mComm on the PC
side (probably also works with LaddieAlpha or other disk emulators) :
- Launch TS-DOS and activate the dos extension (press F5 until it says "DOS-ON")
- Go to basic
- Use savem to save it in two halves (it seems savem won't let you
write 32KB at once) :
  SAVEM"0:rom1.co",0,16383,0
  SAVEM"0:rom2.co",16384,32767,0
- On the PC, use a tool of your choice to remove the first 6 bytes of
those two files (that's the header of co files) and save them with a
".bin" extension (or anything you fancy, but you'll have to change the
last step accordingly)
- Then, concatenate them into one file (from Windows shell : copy /b
rom1.bin+rom2.bin rom.bin)

If someone knows a "smart" way to remove the header, I'd like to hear
it (I used emacs but it has to be a better way :o) )

Cheers,
Eric
