Hi all,
I finally put together my GUI program for reading/writing/formatting CoCo
floppies under WinXP. It actually relies on the fdrawcmd.sys driver
<http://simonowen.com> to do the low-level work. You will need to install
that driver in order for my program to operate.
If anyone wants to try it, you can get it here:
<http://www.coco3.com/users/DarrenA/CoCoDisk.zip>
It's pretty basic, but it gets the job done. It's also faster than OmniFlop
since it can detect the sector interleave on the disk and read/write all
sectors on a track in one revolution.
I've only tested it on WinXP, but it will *probably* work on 2000 and Vista
as well. If anyone can verify this I would appreciate it.
Cheers,
Darren
