This Program is part of the MacDiskImage package (c) Robert Grob 1996, which is ShareWare! This program may not be distributed separate from the package. MacIMG is a program for the PC which can Read/Write MS-DOS/Mac 1.44 Mb diskimages from/to floppies. It can even function as a disk-copier. Usage: MACIMG [options] where mode = R or W (Read/Write Disk) drive = A: or B: file = [your imagefile] (Not on A: or B:) options: /m = MacBinary encoded Apple DiskCopy image (No checksum, see docs) /r = Raw image (Default) /vw = Verify disk writing (mode W only) /s = Split image in 704K parts (mode R only) /sn = Split image in n-bytes parts (mode R only) /cn = Copy image-parts to separate disks, drive n (mode R only) /d = Delete destination disks (mode R only) /dl = Delete destination disks except last one (mode R only) /vc = Verify copying to separate disks (mode R only) /f = Force disk-parameter-table to 1.44 3.5" /a = SHAREWARE INFO Mode: R or W R Read a floppy to a diskimage-file(). must be on a nonfloppy-drive, for example c:. W Write a diskimage-file to a floppy. (Important: diskimage-file must be in RAW-format) drive Seems clear to me. Must be A: or B: file Diskimage-file on HardDisk, choose something. Options m The file is a macbinary encoded Apple Diskcopy image. The image is not a 100% image, you need DiskDup+ AND Diskcopy4.2 to make it a 100% image. See ShapeShifterSession. The converted image can be mounted with mountimage. r The file is a RAW image. The file can be mounted as a filedisk when used with ShapeShifter.Handy for coverdisks. vw When WRITING an image (Mode W) this option will verify the writing. You can use MacIMG as a diskcopier! s, sn The file will be written in pieces of +- 704 Kbytes or in specified number of bytes. In "s" mode: The size of the pieces is rounded to the nearest rounded track, so 512*2*18=18432 bytes. cn The splitted pieces will be copied from harddisk to drive n. Drive n may be the same as .(Usually) d, dl The files on all the destinationdisks will be deleted before the pieces are copied. In "dl" mode: All BUT the last disk will be deleted. This makes sense because the third (=last mostly) piece is very small, so other "tail" pieces can be fitted on one disk. This will save you the amount of needed disks! vc This option will assure you that the information is copied correctly. If an error occurs, please stop MacDiskImage and copy the filepart manually ("copy ../v /b") on the disk using verify. Don't forget the info file which should be on the first disk. a If you use it a lot, pay the shareware. f This forces the default disk pointer of the PC to a 3.5 1.44 Mb drive. This makes sense because some PC's point to a 5.25 1.2 Mb drive. Thanks to Mark Weinstein for this information. Normally, a "dir" or "cd" command will point to the correct drive. But we are not using those cmds in this proggy. Have Fun! Robert Copyright (c) 1996 Robert Grob
