I’ve just added Issue 67 to the
8-Bit Software Magazine Online Conversion.
This was an extra issue released in 2013 but I only recently became aware of it.
Since the rest of the issues were added I’ve made quite a few incremental
improvements to the conversion, especially relating to the accuracy of the Mode
7 conversion and much better handling of archive content. I plan to continue
making gradual improvements over time.

I’ve written a new Linux kernel module inspired by the Samba vfs_recycle
module

It is currently tested and working with Ubuntu 24.04 and a DKMS .deb package
is available for Debian-based distros. For more information, check out the
project page.
