Converting anything from Sam to PC is very simple. Just run an emulator and print what you want to convert. "print" feature in emulator writes a text file on the hosting system. Nothing can be easier. :-)
(And one curious note: I wonder if the current sim coupe still uses my printer emulation code, or not. I remember it was originally not emulated, so I added it there like tape support, which was recently discussed here. It's another feature not very widely used... :-)

That's true, but many years ago, I remember I bodged a small program together, which took a text file and wrote it in to SAM line by line using a MasterBasic command.
That's also the way PCSUITE does it. Ian
Can't remember the command off the top of my head (been a long time), but as long as the syntax was correct, it would enter it as if you were writing the line.<Snip>
Almost forgot but working in the other direction, if your working on a PC with SIMCOUPE then my PCPRINT program can read a basic file from a .dsk image and convert it to a text file in typical PC format.
Ian
It's sad but these days I can't even remember what I called my programs, it was of course SCPRINT.
