It's called "RT11.EXE", and does a damn good job. It can read/write RT-11 RX50s in the PC's 1.2MB drive, and also has the added bonus of being able to format cheap PC diskettes for use in the RX50 drive. Sorry, but I can't remember the archive site that I got it from. Some enterprising soul will have to do an archie search for a site. The author has the following at the end of the docs: This software was produced by Mark Aitchison, Department of Physics, University of Canterbury; the software is not public domain, the rights to the software are not shared, but you may share the executeable form of the program so long as no charge is made and this message is retained. If anyone has an archive site, I can ftp it so anyone can grab it. Mike
