Re: Delta disk conversion to .vdk help
For binary files, use better HxD, which is a very nice hex editor. Converting the disk to text may ruin it.
Re: Delta disk conversion to .vdk help
Here is the ammended file. I used a hex editor called neo by hhd software to change the personal details that I could see.
I only hope that there is something still worth saving at the end of all of this.

That was a combination of a bash one-liner to strip the 8-byte per-sector headers in the anadisk output, adding automatic single density to XRoar when sectors per track == 10 (plus switch to disable), and then a tiny kludge so it changed the "type" of the disk once it loaded (so it wrote DMK back instead of DSK/JVC).
