PC Utilities
Even in 1987 Commodore had observed the usefulness of having at
least some compatibility with the PC. This led to the inclusion of
4 utilities for the reading of PC disks. These can be found on the
Extras disk.
PCCopy- Allows the Amiga to access and copy
files from a PC disk.
PCFormat- Allows the Amiga to format PC
disks.
ToPCCopy- Allows the Amiga to copy files to PC
disks.
ReadME- A text file explaining how to use the
utilities.
These files were very rudimentary in accessing PC disks. At the
time, Commodore weren't distributing CrossDOS, which allowed PC
disks to be treated as if they were Amiga ones. If you want to see
exactly what any of these utilities were like they can be found in
the MessyDos distribution.
