That's an interesting encoding scheme they used, converting each original byte nibble into into an index lookup (0-F) of disk nibbles. 

Much nicer to read in disassembled form too, neat! :)

I remember FSII being a good challenge.  I still have the RWTS printout (tractor feed paper and all).  Ugh.

Fun to read, thanks for sharing!
