Version 2.00 of cpmfs has just been released, and it’s pretty good even if I do say so myself.
Cpmfs is a tool that allows you to copy files to and from CP/M disk images. It runs on Windows (but should easily port to linux) so you can set up disks for an old Operating System from the comfort of your current one. I use it in automated builds but it’s designed to be easy to use manually too. Here’s what you can do: Continue reading cpmfs 2.00
