That would be me, then. Yeh, it works. It's quick - ish, but it doesn't handle corrupted disks too well ( according to Martin, who discovered this for me! ) and certainly wouldn't work with any fancy protection stuff But yeh. If you have a pc and want to transfer normal sam disks to .dsk files, then for gawd's sake DON'T USE SAMDISK! USE SAMDSK! ( At least until Martin's better-than-samdsk-and-written-in-pascal version comes out ) I forget where... but it's definitely in nvg *somewhere* try something like sam-coupe/misc/pc or something... dunno... dave
