Here is the last update of Disk Disintegrater DeLuxe. Version 4.2 is much
|
|
easier to use and much faster. Many improvements have been made to D.D.DeLUXE:
|
|
|
|
1) Now, D.D.DeLUXE can pack the track volume # of 5.25" disks. Note: the
|
|
volume # is not the prodos volume, it's the track volume (the track volume
|
|
is an old technique used by DOS 3.3 to format tracks of 5.25" disks, but not
|
|
used by prodos).
|
|
2) In partial catalog mode, you may configure D.D.DeLUXE to show not only
|
|
DIR and DDD files, but also REL and TXT files.
|
|
3) You can configure your D.D.DeLUXE to scan or not, your 5.25" drives
|
|
(scan = search for a prodos disk volume).
|
|
4) You can also configure it to scan or not, all your devices connected to your
|
|
Apple //.
|
|
5) When you unpack a DDD file and format the target disk, D.D.DeLUXE
|
|
unpacks it much faster than V4.1 or V4.0. Take note when you
|
|
unpack a DDD file type ".A " (5.25" disk), D.D.DeLUXE will format
|
|
your target disk automatically (it's necessary because of the track volume #).
|
|
6) You can now use all the prodos commands in pack and unpack option.
|
|
7) In the main menu, you can quit D.D.DeLUXE quickly by pressing CTRL-Q.
|
|
8) Like version V4.1, V4.2 can unpack old DDD 2.1 files.
|
|
9) There are also many other modifications you will discover using this
|
|
program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
------
|
|
a) When will run D.D.DeLUXE V4.2, you will have to re-configure it because
|
|
V4.2 do not use the same configuration file as V4.1 or V4.0.
|
|
|
|
b) If you use the loading file "D.D.DELUXE.LOAD", you must replace it by the
|
|
new one.
|
|
|
|
c) All DDD files packed with V4.0 and V4.1 are compatible with D.D.DeLUXE V4.2
|
|
(V4.2 can unpack V4.0 and V4.1 DDD files).
|
|
|
|
d) To unpack old DDD 2.1 files, you proceed the same way you do with
|
|
D.D.DeLUXE DDD files.
|
|
|
|
e) When you unpack an old DDD 2.1 file, there is no guarantee the unpacked
|
|
disk is exactly the same as the original disk because there is no checksum
|
|
in the old DDD file. But if you unpack a new DDD file (type $DD, with
|
|
message in the file), if D.D.DeLUXE unpack without checksum error, you can
|
|
be sure your unpacked disk is exactly the same as the original disk.
|
|
|
|
f) Last note: For the moment, the documentation has not been updated to V4.2.
|
|
The present documentation is for D.D.DeLUXE V4.0.
