Yep! I have tried to restore a number of HiSoft Packages that were for the
cp/m 2.2 system. Some files were missing from some of the images in the
Amstrad archives. Missing files were found in the cp/m MSX archives!

The files were moved to MS-DOS with a MSX disk image manager, then moved to
a Pro-DOS floppy with 22Disk - dos program.

Other files were in the wrong disk format, so loading the image into
Spectaculator 7, then I can open the B drive as a 720 image and copy the
files over into the new image, which SIM Coupe with Pro-DOS can read.

There is around 60  new disk images on the Pro-DOS site, including a number
of Infocom IF games , with HiSofts CP/M FTL Modula-2 coming later.
