Disk images over Xmodem, Part 2



I've succeeded in bootstrapping Shrinkit (PDSHRI~1.DSK from my apple/ folder, actually) with Xmodem and Apple Access.

But doing the reverse for an indeterminate number of disks I might wind up with could be a bit of a hassle, I'm wondering how hard it would be (and I'm not all that great a 6502 coder though I've done it), to write a program to take a disk, convert it on-the-fly to a .DO or .PO, and blast it over the SSC, using xmodem or possibly another protocol I can support, (i.e., read each sector then transfer it) ... since I want to leave getty running as-is because it Just Works...

I could prolly code part of it in C (cc65) if I have to...
