Perhaps Philip can comment when he sees this.
The tool I wrote to do backups, isn't purely a binary dump of the disk
contents.
It could be, though.

What RXCUTL does (by memory here... ;) ) is there is a first byte providing
the block #, followed by 16k of block data.   (or 32k, not sure now).
point is, it is not a straight binary dump.

Said another way, if there is an agreed format for making an M100 CP/M A:
disk dump accessible on simulated CP/M, lets look at that for next drop of
RXCUTL.
