Managing ADF files: Rust library "adflib"
Volker Schwaberow is in the process of converting ADFlib, written by Laurent Clevy mainly in C, into the programming language Rust. As he explained to us when asked, the library is still in a very early stage and still very minimalistic. At the moment it can read and write ADF, it can read and write tracks and sectors in a byte array. There is no support yet for file systems, compression, etc.
However, that is the goal. In addition, there will be a command line tool that will allow these operations to be performed on the command line without the need for programming knowledge. The author is happy about support, code commits from third parties are welcome. (dr)
