gloriouscowThe current state of PAL dumping kind of sucks.
I aim to do something about that..
hkz@gloriouscow wonderful! I did something similar with the dpeeper (https://github.com/DuPAL-PAL-DUmper/dppeeper) but this is much more flexible and does not require custom hardware!
@hkz oh wow, that is nearly identical.
@gloriouscow it's an evolution of a previous tool of mine that was a bit more automated but also more limited in potential.
I have not ported everything over the new board and tooling, but this has served me well up to now to dump PROMs and other weird devices. And also to reverse a PAL for the Mac Plus. Ended up defining a TOML format so every user can build their own IC definition to help them analyze the device.
Should you see any interesting idea in there for your project, be my guest.
@hkz I'm even using TOML for pin definitions, but we went about it completely differently. I have an array of pins with attributes, you have attributes with arrays of pins. Funny.
root42@gloriouscow array of struct vs struct of arrays... age old discussion. :-D
