Nice to see YouTube showing adds that deliberately try and mislead users.

Pretty impressed this worked. Back when I was doing my PhD simply extracting the numbers from an image reliably would have been a good result.

Nothing like scratching your own itch. Wanted a nice easy way to convert from ZX Spectrum SCR files to PNGs. There are some nice command line tools for doing it, but here's my web version. www.esp32rainbow.com/tools/scr-to...

It works - but unfortunately without reprogramming the keyboard controller it’s pretty useless.
