Makes me wonder. When I read "A brief history about SMS" from TT, there was a para about formatting disks. At least, he has written his own
utility, so it *should* be possible..... Perhaps, Marcel can tell more...;-)

As far as I know SMSQ/E 2.91 was the last version to reliably access DD floppies. In later versions writing to the disk froze SMSQ/E on my Aurora, so does format.
I prefer to rely on good old QDOS to read old DD's.

This issue also was raised some years ago.
IIRC, the 2.91 source was not available to compare and check where it went wrong.
