1)COPY: IF THE "DISK INFO: YES/NO" BUTTON IS SET TO "YES", THE COPY PARAMETERS

 WILL BE DETERMINED BASED ON THE ORIGINAL DISK (BOOT READING).YOU CAN GET AN
 IDEA OF THESE PARAMETERS BY CLICKING ON THE "INFO DISK" COMMAND.
 IF THESE INDICATIONS SEEM WRONG TO YOU (DOUBLE SIDED WHEN THE BOOT INDICATES
 SINGLE SIDED, OR COMPLETELY UNREADABLE PARAMETERS LIKE 1256 TRACKS...), JUST
 SET "DISK INFO: YES/NO" TO "NO", AND YOU WILL HAVE TO ENTER THE CORRECT
 VALUES (SECTORS PER TRACK, NUMBER OF SIDES, TRACKS).
 FOR DELICATE FORMATS, TRY YOUR LUCK WITH THE PROTECTED MODE!

2)FORMATTING: INTERLEAVE IS 1 FOR 9 AND 10 SECTORS FORMATS, 6 FOR THE 11

 SECTORS FORMAT. THE 9 SECTORS FORMATTING IS PARTICULARLY OPTIMIZED AND IS,
 TO MY KNOWLEDGE, THE FASTEST ON ST (17 SECONDS FOR SINGLE SIDED).

3)EDIT SECTOR: THIS SECTOR EDITOR IS VERY SIMPLE, BUT IT IS EXTREMELY USEFUL!!!

 WHETHER IT'S JUST TO VIEW A BOOT, ETC...THE SEARCH IS FAST (ASCII/HEX), AND
 YOU CAN MODIFY THE VIEWED SECTOR BY SIMPLY TYPING THE HEXADECIMAL VALUES ON
 THE KEYBOARD.

4)FILE COPY: NOTHING TO REPORT...OH YES: I THINK IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!!

5)TRANSFORM/EXPAND: THESE TWO COMMANDS AIM TO INCREASE THE DISK'S CAPACITY

 WITHOUT ALTERING ITS CONTENT. THE FIRST BY INCREASING THE NUMBER OF SECTORS 
 PER TRACK, THE SECOND BY SWITCHING FROM SINGLE SIDED TO DOUBLE SIDED. DO THIS 
 ON A BACKUP COPY YOU NEVER KNOW!!!

 THAT'S ALL I HAD TO SAY... OH YES VERY IMPORTANT:

  I AWAIT YOUR COMMENTS ON <<<RTEL>>> IN *FRAISINE'S MAILBOX!!!
  YOUR COMPLIMENTS AND CRITIQUES WILL BE ESPECIALLY WELCOME AS THEY WILL
  ALLOW ME TO FIX OR IMPROVE THIS SOFTWARE FOR FUTURE VERSIONS! I WILL
  RESPOND TO YOU PERSONALLY.

 SEE YOU LATER,
      FRAISINE
