Welcome to the RomCombiner BBC BASIC utility

Introduction and History

RomCombiner allows individual Z88 Applications to be combined into one device.

Historically, combinations had been made by Wordmongers, Ranger Computers and Steve Marsh for the Z88 User Group to use the 128K or 256K EPROM cards. These were hard crafted and beyond the skills of the Z88 user. Gary Lancaster wrote the first version that allowed users to read existing Applications on ROM devices, Combine them, check that the target EPROM has been erased properly, then finally blow the combined result into it.

When the flash card and OZ 4.2 were produced, RomCombiner was modified so that applications could be added on these devices as well.
