|
|
systems from DOS PCs.
|
|
|
|
Supported file systems:
|
|
DOS/BATCH (both disks and DECtapes)
|
|
Files-11 (read only)
|
|
OS/8
|
|
RSTS/E
|
|
RT-11
|
|
TSS/8.24 DECtape (PUTR.SAV format)
|
|
TSS/8.24 system disk (read only)
|
|
XXDP+
|
|
|
|
Supported media:
|
|
disk image files (can apply/remove interleave for floppy image files)
|
|
RX33, RX50 floppies in 1.2MB drive
|
|
RX01/02/03 workalike floppies in 1.2MB drive
|
|
RX23, RX24, RX26 disks in 3.5" 720KB/1.44MB/2.88MB drive
|
|
RX01 real floppies in 8" drive with appropriate controller
|
|
TU58 drives plugged into PC COM port
|
|
SCSI disks through ASPI driver
|
|
CD-ROM
|
|
(Catweasel/ISA driver is unfinished and therefore undocumented)
|
|
|
|
The program accepts a subset of the usual DOS commands, but allows you to
|
|
MOUNT non-DOS disks (with a fake drive letter or "ddu:" style name). Once
|
|
you've mounted a foreign disk, you can "log in" to it just like a DOS disk,
|
|
and TYPE, COPY (including COPY /B), DIR etc. will work (no RENAME yet, sorry).
|
|
|
|
The program's basic point of pride is the fact that you can mount more than
|
|
one foreign disk at once, and they may be from different operating systems,
|
|
so you can copy file between foreign file systems w/o the intermediate step
|
|
of copying them into a DOS directory and back out again (especially handy if
|
|
space is tight and/or your files have dates before 01/01/1980).
|
|
|
|
By the way, whatever your stinking web browser may tell you, "putr.doc" is
|
|
a plain ASCII file! This shouldn't be a problem when accessing this server
|
|
via HTTP, because the server's MIME types file has this set up properly.
