IVX7 is a tool for reading, modifying, and writing Yaesu VX-7[R] configurations.
I used this website for all reverse engineering information.
make INSTALL=1 ivx7.release
Creating a new clone file using a template and pgm scripts:
ivx7 load template.vx7 \ script pgmscripts/defaults.pgm \ script pgmscripts/simplex.pgm \ script pgmscripts/southbay_rpt.pgm \ script pgmscripts/carla.pgm \ script pgmscripts/frs_murs.pgm \ save new.vx7
Getting info about a clone file:
ivx7 load new.vx7 info
