A-COPY can format a DD disk up to 959K...
Oh:
Just remembered, no peesee can read extended
disk formats, so number of options decreases,
right? But there´s some more:
E-copy can format dos-disks, but only 720K...
BUT:
If you put the stuff on HD disks in the peesee,
then you could use PARALELLCOPY to transfer
the stuff Directly FROM that drive TO the
ST´s diskdrive, via the parallel printer-
ports. I´ve done it, it works! And the target
disk in the ST can have just ANY format, it
doesn´t matter. (up to 959K, that is...)
(bonus: the ST can read the peesee´s CD ROM!)
Warning: If there´s no disk in the diskdrive,
then PARCP soft won´t find the drive at all!
Now, if your peesee doesn´t have the needed
bidirectional printer port, why not try
one of our HD floppy kits in your ST? ;-)
Just format the 1.44MB disk in your ST,
and it´s ready to be used in your peesee...
(yes, the format IS compatible)
So there are some options, after all...
Good luck/Flash
