It should be somewhat easier to do that then to program an c64 emulator.

But perhaps it would be better to have a seperate executable than to include
it into an emulator.

And it should work *without* any s/w on the c64. (*with* s/w on c64 you can
use 64-net which does this work properly.)
So the PC really looks like a c64-drive.

*please* don't wait for *perfect* solutions to publish.
For the first version it should be sufficient to understand:

LOAD "foo",8
SAVE "....",8
LOAD "$",8
perhaps even without 1,8,15 (deleting...)

(i would pay $10 for that piece of s/w and i think many would do so too!)

An old PC, with or plus an old hard disc 

-> 10 - 50 $ -> 10 Mb of diskspace !!!!!

Please don't let this thread end w/o some announcement

Thanks in advance
