I seem to remember there was a program that was written for the CoCo that allowed the reading and writing of a 40ss 5.25" Floppy.

I also know there were some programs for the PC (DOS) That allowed reading and writing of a CoCo disk... Guess I'll hafta dig around my disks and pray that they are readable (and hope I didnt lose it so I can get the name of it for you.
