SYNOPSIS

       dc42wrap [ -m | -r | -s ] [ -n name ] in.flp out.image[.bin]


DESCRIPTION

       Dc42wrap takes a "raw" 720K (DD) or 1440K (HD) floppy disk image and
       prepends an Apple DiskCopy 4.2 (creator='dCpy') disk image
       (type='dImg') header.  The resulting data fork is acceptable as input
       to any software that can handle this file type, including Disk Copy
       6.2. This makes it possible to use a Macintosh to produce PC boot flop-
       pies (as opposed to running RAWRITE or FDIMAGE on an Intel-based
       DOS/Windows system).

       The input and/or output file names can be replaced by - to pipe from/to
       standard input/output.


OPTIONS

       -m     Generate output in MacBinary II format.

       -r     Output data fork only. You are responsible for ensuring the Mac
              OS file type and creator are set appropriately at the destina-
              tion.  (This is the default if unspecified.)

       -s     Generate output in AppleSingle format.

       -n     Set the name stored in the DiskCopy 4.2 image header. If omit-
              ted, the name of the input file is used.
