Mike,

Re you message,

The DMODE included with the QT and Tomcats has the capability to do things
like, 'dmode /d0 coco' which sets /d0 to read coco OS9 disks. Also Atari and
Mizar(stdd), Universal (univ), and standard OS9 (std) are supported that way.
Of course all the other params can be set too. This is nice if you own one of
our machines but if you don't as in your case our documentation on our DMODE
would be useless to you.

Perhaps now that MW has 'moded' we could add documentation for that.

Trying to maintain documentation on apps that run under OSK is like trying to
hit a moving target. Prpbably could do it with a readme file on the disk
though.

Frank
