tzxsplit
Splits a TZX file into its different programs.
This tool is useful to automatically split up a single TZX file of a mixed tape with different programs. tzxsplit
searches for a ZX Spectrum “Program” block, and then extracts the program itself and all subsequent blocks up to the next “Program” block.
Each program and the subsequent blocks are written into a separate TZX file, which is named like the program itself. A number is added to the file name, in order to avoid file name collisions.
If the tape file should not start with a “Program”, all blocks up to the first Program are stored into a TZX file called “preamble.tzx”.

This tool also accepts a TAP file. It is converted to TZX format internally.

Read tape.tzx
and generate TZX files for all the programs (and the subsequent data blocks) found in it.
