There is a file on this BBS (Canada Remote Systems) called hdform15.zip which 
is probably available on lots of other BBSs around North America and 
elsewhere. It contains the sources (in PASCAL) and executables for a floppy 
disk formatter which can format DS/DD floppies to higher capacities (I get 
820KB using a 1.2MB drive). This may be beyond what you needed, but would be a 
good starting point. The product is public domain, and originates from West 
Germany.
