Intro:
======

Asimov is the name of an Internet FTP server that has quite a lot Apple
II software on it. They are stored as disk image files. After downloading
and decompressing such files, you can use either DSK2FILE or this program
to transfer the data from the file to a 5.25" disk.

IMPORTANT: This program is for the Apple IIGS only!


Usage:
======

When you start the program, you will get a menu:

Create DISK from .dsk file
   Lets you select a disk image file (usually has the appendix ".dsk" and
   writes this file to the 5.25" disk in drive one. Please note that that
   disk has to be formatted with either DOS or ProDOS before.

Create .dsk FILE from disk
   This will instantly read the 5.25" disk in drive one and save the contents
   of the disk to a file you specify.

Storage order
   Use this option to toggle storage order between DOS 3.3 and ProDOS order.
   The storage order is just the way a disk read out / written. Usually, an
   emulator requires a specific order, or you can toggle it. Most emulators
   have their default set to DOS 3.3 order.

Quit
   Leave the program. You can quit to ProDOS, restart, boot slot 6 or do a
   "Hardboot" on slot 6. This means that the Startup Slot of the GS in the
   Control Panel is set to 6 before the GS will be restarted.
