Subject: S550 formating Utility APPL Author: Unknown File: DART.sit (140034 bytes) Estimated Download Time (28800 baud): < 1 minute Needs: Roland S550, Mac and a floppy This is a Freeware formating utility I got from Compuserve that can format, read and save images of Roland S550 disks and various other formats. It also has the ability to compress the disk images. A great way to share S550 samples through email DARTx (Disk Archive/Retrieval Tool) is an application that enables you to duplicate Macintosh, Lisa, Apple II, or MS-DOS disks, save disk images, and create disks from image files. DARTx 1.5 can read disk image files in DARTx, DiskMaker, or Disk Copyx format. DARTx 1.5 image files are compressed, approaching a reduction in size comparable to that obtained by using a commercial compression utility. DARTx 1.5 is System 7.0 "savvy", and implements a custom Apple event mechanism to automate the conversion of older DARTx or Disk Copyx files to 1.5 format. The conversion process can be run by "remote control" (even across a network!) using the accompanying HyperCardx stack. (For more information, please refer to the DARTx User Manual.) ..................................................................................................................................................................................
