  • Changed the format number and text for plain DOS images.

  • Changed the logo in the Image Details dialogue for plain DOS image to the Microsoft logo.
  • Changed the DOS Filename validation to match the Microsoft specification of illegal characters.
  • Added Long FileName support for DOS FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32 volumes, but not Master 512 DOS Plus.
  • Changed the method of downloading (extracting) files from an image in that it will now fail if the requested file takes the pointer beyond the end of the image file.
  • Changed the error reported on failure to download.

Bug fixes

  • The Hard Drive image creator dialogue box would not always produce an exact sized image. E.g., a 64MB image would not always be exactly 64MB in size.
  • The correct directory separator is now used with ADFS/DOS hybrid images.
  • Acorn/Watford DFS, Commodore 64, Acorn CFS and Spark images were being opened with the 'directory been read' flag not set, so appeared as if the directories were unread.
  • DFS images were still not correctly being IDed.
