Description: # tzxtools
        
        This is a collection of command line tools for processing TZX files.
        
        TZX is a common file format for preserving computer tapes of the ZX Spectrum, but also Amstrad CPC, C64 and MSX. `tzxtools` mainly supports ZX Spectrum TZX files, but raw file operations can be applied on any TZX file. It also supports TSX files, which are mainly used for MSX.
        
        ## Features
        
        * Convert your old ZX Spectrum tape recordings into TZX files.
        * List, split, merge, and divide the blocks inside TZX files.
        * Extract binary content from TZX blocks.
        * Read hex dumps, disassembled Z80 machine code, or ZX Spectrum BASIC code.
        * Convert ZX Spectrum screens to PNG files.
        * Generate TAP files for ZX Spectrum Next and some emulators.
        * Disassembler also supports all undocumented Z80 instructions and Z80N (ZX Spectrum Next) instructions.
        * Also supports TSX Kansas City Standard blocks.
        
        ## Installation
        
        All the _tzxtools_ are written in Python 3.
        
        ```sh
        pip install tzxtools
        ```
        
        ## Tools
        
        * `tzxcat` - Extracts data from a TZX file. Optionally disassembles, hex dumps or converts blocks to PNG.
        * `tzxcleanup` - Removes all clutter blocks and leaves a clean TZX file.
        * `tzxcut` - Cuts blocks from a TZX file.
        * `tzxls` - Lists the contents of a TZX file.
        * `tzxmerge` - Concatenates multiple TZX files into one file.
        * `tzxsplit` - Splits a TZX file into separate programs.
        * `tzxtap` - Converts a TZX file to TAP file format.
        * `tzxwav` - Converts WAV file ZX Spectrum tape recordings to TZX files.
        
        See the [documentation](https://shredzone.org/docs/tzxtools/index.html) for how the tools are used.
        
        ## TZX and TSX File Format References
        
        The TZX File Format is specified at [World of Spectrum](https://www.worldofspectrum.org/TZXformat.html).
        
        The TSX "ID 4B - Kansas City Standard" block is not a part of the specification. A documentation can be found at the [makeTSX wiki](https://github.com/nataliapc/makeTSX/wiki/Tutorial-How-to-generate-TSX-files#14-the-new-4b-block).
