Introduction

DiskCopy is a format for floppy disk distribution for older Apple Macintosh and Apple II computers. I needed to write this program because I was trying to install A/UX (Apple Unix) on an old Mac, but all the boot disks were in this DiskCopy format so I couldn't directly dd (or rawrite) them to a floppy to make a bootdisk. This program converted the DiskCopy images I downloaded to a raw format that I could dd. Kinda sad too since I spent hours looking for a program to do this, and after downloading the spec for DiskCopy, I was able to write this program in 30 minutes. Just goes to show you sometimes it's just easier doing it yourself.
