[comp.sys.amiga] MS-DOS utility wanted

lawsonse@vttcf.cc.vt.edu (Shannon Lawson) (01/02/91)

Does anyone out there know where I might find a PD utility for reading/writing
to/from MS-DOS disks?  It is for one of my professors.  He is not that familiar
with the Amiga, so I would prefer something which requires little knowledge of
the machine.  Just a front end to copy text files from the MS-DOS disk to the
Amiga.

Is such a beast available on ab20, perhaps?  Tad Guy, are you listening? :-)

Yes.  MSH: is a read/write/format handler for 320K and 720K MS-DOS formats.
From my aging files list of ab20...
