You can. "simcoupe -fd1 image.dsk" inserts image.dsk in floppy drive 1. Use -fd2 for floppy drive 2. This should work in Windows and Linux, and in both cases, you could configure your file manager to do this when you double click on the image. You have to press enter at the about box, but that could be changed. In Windows, you've got to make a pif file with the working directory being c:\sam\simcoupe. :-( You could also drag files on to a "shortcut" with the command line "c:\sam\simcoupe\simcoupe.exe -fd1" -- if you can do that in Linux, that means you could drag /dev/fd0 (the floppy disk) on to the link, and have simcoupe read from that. You might be able to make a symbolic link to /dev/fd0 and double click on it. I'm all in favour of an /optional/ autoboot, when you load a disk from the command line. -- Stuart Brady
