If you are a serious CP/M user, we know that you will be happy with it. This program is used to "install" extra disk types into your CP/M Plus operating system for the Commodore-128. It is NOT a general file copying/translation utility. Once the extra disk types have been installed, your normal CP/M programs such as PIP, SWEEP, DIR, SID, etc. as well as applications such as dBase and WordStar can access these disks directly without any further assistance, just as they can access any of the C-128's native CP/M disk types. Jugg'ler also lets you format new disks in most of the supported types. Please note: Because Jugg'ler relies on certain hardware features of the C-128, it will not work with any other CP/M based computer. About Jugg'ler -------------- Jugg'ler offers a number of useful features such as auto-boot, definition of default disk types, analysis of unknown disk types, and quick backup options. For a full description of how to use any of these features, please consult your manual. The disk definition parameters for Jugg'ler are contained in the separate disk file JUGG.DAT. The current version of this file contains listings for over 140 disk types. If your particular disk type is not listed, we would like to hear from you. Since the file is updated on a regular basis, new additions are always welcome. Send a sample of the disk with a couple of ASCII text files on it, along with a description of the computer it comes from, to: Jugg'ler-128 Disk Definitions c/o Herne Data Systems Ltd. P.O. Box 250 Tiverton, Ontario, N0G 2T0 Canada. With a 1571 disk drive, the following disk types can be supported: Single or Double density, Single or Double sided MFM soft sectored, 40 tracks per side. With a 1581, only Double density 80 tracks per side, Single or Double sided disks can be supported. Disks with non-MFM recording schemes such as Apple CP/M cannot be supported, neither can disks with weird sector numbering schemes (disk with non-sequential sector numbering or where side 0 does not begin at sector 0 or sector 1).
