Bob, DiscOver will not look inside QXL.WIN files on a MSDOS format disk.
It would probably not be difficult to add that facility as for testing purposes I developed the capability to specify a disk image for any of the formats that DiscOVER supports. It might just be a case of exposing this capability in the standard version - I will think about how easy it might be to do.

I had not thought of trying DiscOVER to read them, I have only used it in the past to read floppies. My question is how to read/write inside the QXL.WIN's I have created on them.
