I'm trying to get rid of the key press beep of my Atari STE with TOS 2.06, and I by way of screenshots am led to understand an accessory called CONTROL or XCONTROL would help me do that. I have found several disk images that supposedly contain this utility, but my PC doesn't have a floppy drive and I haven't found an Atari application that can write an ST or MSA file to floppy.
Does anyone know of either?
(X)CONTROL.ACC download?

So you don't have a floppy drive for transferring files? Well how about getting yourself a Gotek drive so you'll be able to use those image files?

JayMSA will absolutely write to a floppy.Reluctant16bitter wrote: Thu Aug 21, 2025 7:20 pm I'm trying to get rid of the key press beep of my Atari STE with TOS 2.06, and I by way of screenshots am led to understand an accessory called CONTROL or XCONTROL would help me do that.

You can make ST images in Hatari or STeem. Floimg is otherwise good for handling images and files on those.

JayMSA is a great application. Thanks! Also for XCONTROL.ACC.

No problem - glad to be able to help.Reluctant16bitter wrote: Fri Aug 22, 2025 4:09 pm JayMSA is a great application. Thanks! Also for XCONTROL.ACC.
Oh, it's a known thing - when you use JayMSA, after some of its actions the
menu's look a bit scrambled. It's not a big deal and doesn't affect the operation.
I usually just restart it if/when it does that.
