TOC is usually saved as *.cue file.              Then I would like a single file that is the .cue followed by the .iso.              So my firmware BIOS will need to know which bit of the       TOC data structure to be able to know when to switch       command to read data instead of TOC?              I will also need to write a utility that can separate out a       combined file into individual .cue and .iso. It will need the       same knowledge as above.              Thanks. Paul.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
