Well, I've written a program that can do it the other way around... that is, reading standard Amiga format disks and writing the resulting file as a Unix file. Works great, I'm currently implementing writing Amiga-format... Anyway, it would be a good idea from C= to implement an Amiga-filesystem under unix, that reads and writes disk and/or harddisks. > There's always the ugly way of using BRU (Backup & Restore Utility) to > backup/restore from diskettes.

That's new to me... anyway, there shouldn't be any problems writing a file directly to the disk and then using a simple program on the Amiga (oops, AmigaDos, that is) side that reads it... Anyway, anybody interested in the program can leave me a not to either address below...
