I was wondering if anyone knows of shareware program out there that will
take a floppy disk and make a file out of the disk image. The program
should also be able to restore the floppy from the file.

I need to transfer a non-dos format floppy via a DOS file. The disk is 
not readeable under DOS DIR command  but I can do a diskcopy, so I assume
the format is the same. So if I can just find a program that will take a 
track by track image of this floppy, and put it into a file, then I can
e-mail this file and presumably restore it to floppy at the other end.

Anyone know of such a program? TIA
