Neat. FYI your “home” links are broke. And here are 150,000 more unique RAR files if you need to test if your compressor produces the same byte-for-byte output if you unrar and then re-rar these: https://discmaster.textfiles.com/search?format=rar&dedup=ded...

Just tried with DeepSeek V4 Pro with OpenCode. It didn't do great. First attempt produced somewhat correct drawings for some of the original samples, but most were just a spaghetti messs of lines. Some prodding got it to do a little better, but still not right. A third prod and it went down a wild rabbit hole and was much worse. I gave up.

I also tried GLM 5.1, it's first attempt was such a disaster I didn't bother working with it any further. It also took by far the longest and wasted a bunch of time/tokens trying to find other converters online (and failing) instead of just reverse engineering the format from the sample files given.

I gave 4.6, 4.7 and GPT 5.5 the same prompt and task to reverse engineer a collection of sample vector files from an obscure Amiga CAD program and create a detailed txt specification and a python converter that converts to SVG and produce a report so I can visually verify.

4.6 did very well. 90% perfect on first try, got to 100% with just a few followups. 4.7 failed horribly. First produced garbage output and claimed it was done, admitted it did that when called out, proceeded to work at it a lot longer and then IT GAVE UP. GPT 5.5 codex was shockingly good. Achieved 90% perfect on first try in about a fourth of the time. Got to 100% faster and with fewer follow-ups.

I’m impressed.

Here is a collection of 1.1 MILLION FILE_ID.DIZ files from back in the day: https://discmaster.textfiles.com/search?q=FILE_ID.DIZ&qfield...

This does an “okay” job at converting the document: https://archive.org/details/KeyViewPro

Here is the converted PDF: https://smallpdf.com/result#r=091f20f23de353fac21376a3a49a60...

The article mentioned using an 8bit ADC. Could a 16bit ADC be used on BOTH sides and achieve 112kbps?

I’ve made many a trip to the git repo to dig up older versions and copy down the old version ebuilds into my own overlay: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo
