22dsk140 is not public domain either.  It's Shareware, which you should
register and pay for if you intend using it.  It's USD25.00 for a single
user and USD100.00 for a "multi-system site licence" (plus 2.50 p&p in 
the USA, or 5.00 p&p foreign).

As an incentive to register, you get the full set of about 420 flavours
of CP/M when you do so, versus about 100 in the shareware distribution.
The package enables you to copy, format, display and manipulate disks 
written on CP/M systems.  It handles 8", 3.5" and 5.25" disks as appropriate.

I'm just annoyed I didn't have CP/M on my Tandy TRS-80 Model I - I could have
read the disks with 22dsk140 it seems :-)

Cheers,  Ian S.
