Qtdskbrowser: Browse BASIC files inside DSK images

[poliander]

If you like browsing BASIC listings, you may find qtdskbrowser useful - just open a DSK file and view them on your screen. Admittedly vibe-coded on a lazy Sunday afternoon using Claude.

Hello, this might be a silly question… Is it Mac compatible?

[poliander]

Yes, should be possible. I will look into it but it will take some time since I am on vacation next week. I already improved the usability quite a bit since the first release, including a Hex view for non-BASIC programs.

[Rambo]

ok thanks for your reply, have a great holiday

There is a project that runs a BASIC program in a PC window. It would be great to merge both projects.

I’d like to chime in to confirm that it works as is on MacOS

I installed Qt6 via “brew install qt”, created a build folder, entered it, typed “cmake ..” to generate the build files, run make, and everything working like a charm!
