One thought that occurs to me is to create a QL floppy disk with the key
tools on it, and then make an image of it using the RAWREAD program on DOS.
If you then add the RAWRITE program plus a batch file already set up to use
it to write the floppy image to A:, this would allow a user to create the QL
floppy disk from the PC side.   That would get over the initial hurdle of
having the critical programs set up correctly on QL format media.   If this
was done with a freshly formatted disk (so that the unused parts compress
well) the image to download should not be too large.

Instructions could then be  based on the fact that the user has this disk
available.
