Hi there,
Does anyone have any information or documents that describe the format of FT-DOS disks?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm develping a windows application called Oric Explorer that allows you to manage Oric tape and disk files. I can read ORICDOS and SEDORIC disks however I'm having problems working out the structure of FT-DOS disks.
Any help would be appreciated.
By the way, if anyone is interested you can view some info and screenshots of Oric Explorer at http://oric.mrandmrsdavies.com
Cheers
Scott

Thanks waskol.
It's written in C# and .NET, this was mainly because I had to develop software in my job using C# but was unable to get on a training course so I decided to write Oric Explorer to help me learn the language. Fortunately I'd done C++ previously so it wasn't too bigger step.
Cheers

Finally, I can drop the poor old Oric Disk Manager
I don't think I have info on the disk structure you're looking for, but I'll dig the manuals I have.
It works fine with ORICDOS disks and most of the SEDORIC disks that I have, I'll take another look at the FT-DOS disks and see if I can figure out the structue.
If you do find any info that would be fantastic.
I hope to be able to let people have a go with Oric Explorer sometime in January, other things taking priority at the moment... Christmas being one of them
Cheers
