If such a program does not readily exist as PD, perhaps some CTOSian
programmer woiuld be interested in porting Emmet P. Gray's mtool package.
It was originally written for the 3B1, in .c.  It has been ported to other
platforms.  It contains all of the source for the DOS directory layout and
such.  The only port required would be the CTOS File System side, and the
raw read/write to diskette.

Trivial, right? ;-)
