Well, it's proprietary in the sense that we have not publicly documented it yet (currently in progress), but it's not really a format at such, more a transmission protocol saved to disk, and that is why we need DRAFT, which will of course be completely open. Yes, exactly, this stream can be converted (either when imaging, or later) into a standard "sector image", which I would think vMac already supports. I'll check that later - I found a CDROM driver disk, and Iomega ZIP driver disk in the attic to try, as well as a disk simply labelled "Mac" (no idea what's on that yet). Getting copy protected images working in vMac require it supporting IPF or DRAFT, and it will also need accurate floppy controller emulation. Hopefully we can get onto the Mac stuff and produce some IPFs, which we're working on write support for at the moment. I hope I cleared things up a bit anyway! :) -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
