I have been transfering programs over to the PC for the past couple weeks
and I am amounting several .DSK files in my apple2 directory.  I have no
problem swapping the start up D1 and D2 disks, it can all be done by
manipulating the files with a batch file.  The problem I have is that some
games require several disk images, and therefor need the disks switched during
the running state of the emulator.

Has any one come up with an idea on how to swap disks from inside the emulator?

And any ideas why the emulator won't run in a window's shell?

Thanks,

	-- T.J.

It works in an OS/2 Dos window! (very well too.)
