Was successfully able to type and save the sample "Twinkle Twinkle
Little Star" song to a virtual disk and reloaded and played it to
confirm that it worked. BUT the online ORC-90 files are ASCII but what
is saved is a binary format for example
With "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" saved in TTLS on virtual disk
ORC90M01.DSK and using the command
decb copy ORC90M01.DSK,TTLS -al TA
from toolshed I get this gibberish.

Witch looks nothing like the source code I typed in.
So Is there a format converter to translate between this gibberish and
proper ORC90 source as is posted on the CoCo Archives ?

I have some ORC-90 files they seem to be text files but just putting
them on an RS-DOS disk does not do any good the ORC-90 cannot read them.
How do I convert them into something the ORC-90 can use I know it can
access a disk as I have been able to save and reload the built in sample
William Tell Overture it does not seem to be a text file.
Thanks
Charlie
