Hi from Geneva, please can somebody send me the command line example for converting an sysex file to txt and vice versa for "bc convert". Is there another utility for osx for editing the sysex. There is a mention on the forum of "BCR tool" software for OSX, but there are no download files on the sourceforge page.. Im on OSX and coffee. thank you so much rastko

somehow my message was not sent yesterday... thank you Royce for your answer and help but I have an older mac and can not run an emultor so easy like the Intel macs can. yesterday I managed to read an syx file and transorm it into text YUHUUUU. the command and path (the name of the syx file was q.syx) in my case was : /Users/rastko/BCconvOSX/bc-convert -i /Users/rastko/BCconvOSX/q.syx and then I got the whole sysex in a nice txt format. but now how do I make an txt into sysex ? there is this output command and I did manage to erase the content of the sysex with it but how does the output command know what to output. an example from my fellow OSX and BCR users would be big help. the coffee is really really god . may you all have a nice day and enjoy spring . rastko --- In bc2000@yahoogroups.com, "rpcfender" <rpcfender@...> wrote:

Hi there,
I've had good experiences using bcrtool on the mac.
You can find it here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bcrtool
umm... no download link? try http://bcrtool.cvs.sourceforge.net/bcrtool/
$ ./bcrtool.py
bcrtool version 2006.09.24 by Brian Rzycki <brzycki at
users.sourceforge.net>
Usage:
bcrtool -s | -t [-f] [-h] [-i input_file] [-o output_file]
-f Force overwriting of the given output file
-i Name of input file; if no file is given, standard input is
used
-o Name of output file; if no file is given standard output is
used
-s Create a sysex file from an inputted template file
-t Create a template file from an inputted sysex file
Examples:
Convert sysex file init.syx to a template in file init.bcr:
$ bcrtool -t -i init.syx -o init.bcr
Convert template file init.bcr to a sysex file init.syx:
$ bcrtool -s -i init.bcr -o init.syx
Convert template file init.bcr to a sysex file init.syx and overwrite
init.syx even if it exists:
$ bcrtool -s -f -i init.bcr -o init.syx
Convert standard input into a sysex file named init.syx:
(input from somewhere) | bcrtool -s -o init.syx

how do you launch it, and what is the exact error message please? you have to set execute permissions on the file to launch it directly, but starting it with $ python bcrtool.py should always work. to set execute permissions do $ chmod +x bcrtool.py if neither works then maybe you have a problem with your python installation - check it with e.g. $ python --version (mine is Python 2.5.1) $ which python (/usr/bin/python) hth, /m
