July 20, 2010 – TRS-80 Virtual Floppy Disk Manager Updated

Miguel Dutra has released v0.6 of his Command Line version of his Virtual Disk Manager utility for Windows. This is a small utility which allows you to access virtual TRS-80 disks at a file level, as if they were normal PC disks.

It appears that this utility can read all known TRS-80 DOS’s except for (1) CPM and (2) anything made by Percom.

Explanations and the program can be found on Miguel’s web site, on the DSK and DMK Image Utilities page, or HERE.

The new version brings:

* Write-capable
* Fixed a bug which caused it to read an invalid sector when the file size exceeded one disk track.

    One word, “WOW”.

    I hope he open-sources his code asap.

    This is one step closer to seeing .DMK like .ZIP files — able to use them as easy storage transfer containers in and out of the TRS-80 world.

    Awesome Miguel! I’ve got to set some time aside to bug-test the program.
