I was trying to use the opensc-tool application to dump the files on the card, but it hangs at a certain point where it's trying to dump a file that is 250 bytes (I suspect it is related to the file size since it's getting close to the maximum size of 255 from what I understand). Looking at my error console on the Mac, I can see that it is PCSC that is timing out and causing the application to hang. I looked around the ACS site (http://www.acs.com.hk) and all I could find is this SDK kit, which is what I have, and is where I got the tools: http://www.acs.com.hk/index.php?pid=product&id=ACOS5-SDK You may try contacting ACS if you want just the tools. I don't see why they would make you buy the whole kit just to get the software. >> I've started to make some progress with the ACOS5 driver, though, and >> will try to at least get it to some basic operational state as I have >> some more time to work on it.
