+ | ====== Split the file ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now that we have the **myfile.dat**, we'll need to split the file into tracks. This lets the emulator load the files back like it was a diskette. We've included a simple program to do this, its called **splitfile2trakc.py** and you can run it by typing in **splitfile2track.py myfile.dat** it will create two files, **track0.dat** and **track1.dat** | ||

+ | Rename the files 00.dat and 01.dat respectively | ||

+ | And drag them into your **img** folder | ||

+ | {{ :tutorials:knittingmachine:screen_shot_2010-10-26_at_9.56.07_pm.png |}} | ||

+ | Lastly, we'll reupload the files to the knitting machine, see the next tutorial! | ||
