RIDE soon to migrate to another web domain, announced in the new version of the application, while this web domain silently ceases to function! Please update your bookmarks/links once the new version of RIDE is out!

Are tape images supported?

Applies to: RIDE 1.3 and later

Yes but only for platforms where tapes represent an important storage medium (e.g. ZX Spectrum derivates). To access tape operations, search the menu of the particular disk operating system (DOS) for a Tape submenu (see example below). Once a tape is inserted, you can transfer files from and to it by copy-pasting, or dragging and dropping them. Tape images cannot be opened individually at the moment – they currently can only accompany a disk image (as the disk image triggers recognition of a DOS, that eventually may or may not support tapes).
