February 3, 2009 – New DSK/DMK Utility – Emulator File Read and Copy


Phil Ereaut has released his Emulator File Read and Copy 2006 v3.1


(Click Image For Larger Screen-Shot)

This program reads .Dsk files, and displays the disk filenames in a list box. Clicking on a file, allows the file to be saved to a PC folder. It can be used just to view the Files on a .Dsk, if you dont want to copy the files.

It doesn’t always work, but it has definitely helped me extract files from DSK images which the emulator would not recognize.
