Shouldn't the archive aim to store software in its original format? Some titles were released on both disk and tape, so it would make sense to preserve both disk and tape images, and not just the most convenient format. Converting existing disk titles to tape files seems wrong to me, and would also make them much less convenient for use on real machines. Of course, I've nothing against new software being written out as tape images if that's what the author wants!

I've implemented a quick test version that does a temporary disk image switch when attempting to boot from a non-bootable disk. It loads only DOS from the switched disk, returning to the original disk for the AUTO* file search (if required). In the options you just specify the path of the disk image or .SBT file containing DOS. Does that fit your requirements? It might even be nice if SimCoupe had a built-in DOS image so the option could be enabled by default, to help out new users... Si
