 Kingsoft, Deutscher Zeichensatz, how to save the ROM into a file

http://plus4world.com/software/Deutscher_Zeichensatz_C16

This one is inside my C16 and I want to save the ROM als a file. It is the U24 (Kernal, C000 to ffff I think).

How can I save this into a file? Simply [monitor] s"rom",8,c000,ffff does not work. Have I to "T xxxx,yyyy,zzzz" something before?

Is there another way to do this?

I am not very experienced to those things and do not know much of that.

Is the following right? I just want do dump the Kernal Rom, Basic Rom excluded.

1. start the romdump.prg
2. monitor s"kernal.rom",8,8000,bfff

Don't laugh at me, please.

So it's a KERNAL at the standard place? Is the BASIC ROM also altered? The safest would be to just save everything from monitor then. I would say:

F 1000 5000 00
T 8000 BFFF 1000
S "BASIC.ROM.DE" 8 1000 4FFF
F 1000 5000 00
T C000 FCFF 1000
T FF20 FFFF 4F20
S "KERNAL.ROM.DE" 8 1000 4FFF

If you're sure the BASIC is the same, you can skip the most steps and only have to perform the last 3. Hope this helps!

Yes, I think that just the KERNAL has been replaced by an EPROM. Thank you for your advice. I will give it at try soon.

Only a tip:
all [S]aving final addresses must be +1 due to the saving routine bug happy
For example 3rd line:
S "BASIC.ROM.DE" 8 1000 5000

To save only the kernal I have to use:

T C000 FCFF 1000
T FF20 FFFF 4F20
S "KERNAL.ROM.DE" 8 1000 5000

(5000 instead of 4FFF)
but after that the file contains "only" 1000 to 4FFF?

Is that right?

You should clean the memory first to avoid garbage in the I/O area.
So:

Clean memory:
F 1000 5000 00
Transfer Kernal ROM below I/O area
T C000 FCFF 1000
Transfer Kernal ROM above I/O
T FF20 FFFF 4F20
Save the transferred ROM image to disk as "KERNAL.ROM.DE"
S "KERNAL.ROM.DE" 8 1000 5000

Now I know WHAT to do and WHY to do it. Thank you very much. I think that I will have some spare time this evening to do this.
