Nope. I haver two of them (from two different disks, and they're both
different sizes, less than 1.4 MB.

I would encourage you to provide your self-writing windows EXE, as well
as a raw floppy image. you don't even have to officially publicize the
image's existance. just include it on the CD.


Well, if it's there, I feel that I should explain what it is. And if I
don't explain how to use it, I'm going to become "tech support" for
stuff I know nothing about (what's new?). Maybe what I'll do is simply
say that if a reader absolutely can't create his own floppy, send me a
blank floppy and return postage and I'll send it back loaded. That
would be a good test to see if the "maybe five readers" estimate is
accurate.


and yes, I'm
volunteering to provide the image, gratis. send me email and we'll set
the details.


Thanks, but I have a volunteer working on a Mac simpleminded version.
If he comes up with one, I'll put it on, otherwise (and I've already
written the text) I'm going to stick with my "Just go find a damn PC.
You know you can. Do it now, don't wait until you're desperate."
approach.
