ADT?

I forgot about Asimov, the disk making program for the IIgs. (Not to be confused with the web site archive. ADT (Apple disk transfer) is for copying 5.25 disk contents into a file on a PC/Mac/Other computer over a null modem connection. (using serial ports)


Some of the full-disk images can even be file-copied to the HD

Some ProDOS games can be installed or file copied to a hard disk for faster loading and convenience. Unfortunately unless it was specifically designed to do that, the volume name tends to be hard coded and had to be patched in the game or the HD renamed whenever you want to play the game. Of course maybe you can partition smaller spaces just for a particular ProDOS game...

Sorry, POP is not likely one of them unless it has finally been deprotected/removed from that 18 sector disk.

Thankx,
