Hi,
I am looking for a PD UNIX program which will copy a UNIX file to or from
an MSDOS formatted floppy given that I have a raw device access only to a
720K diskette.  Nothing fancy required, just copying files back and forth
with no translation or anything.  I've tried "archie" but just can't seem
to find a good search string for something like this.  Please reply by
email, since I don't regularly subscribe to or read these newsgroups.  My
email address is "prindle@nadc.navy.mil" or "Frank.Prindle@bbs.oit.unc.edu".
Many thanks in advance,
Frank Prindle
