[A83] Re: ungrouping in ASM



AFAIK there is no documented ROM call or routine provided by TI that serves
the purpose you are asking for...

But I don't think it would be too hard to write your own ungrouping
routine...
group files look like this in memory

group header
group data
    file header
    file data
    file header
    file data
    ....

easyily you can make a routine to read the group header ( how many files in
group...) and then go through the group file and read the file headers.. and
if enough memory.. make a copy of the file in RAM ... simple as that...
(simple in theory... the actually programming has some twists to read from
ROM page)
