wrp mfm on the Amiga
« on: February 26, 2008, 09:35:14 PM »
Hello, all,

I received an interesting message below.  It seems that software was archived in the Amiga format, "wrp mfm".  I've never heard of that format.  How does a person go about in accessing that?

Message follows,

Subject: Need help with some salvaged files...

   I have a project that might be of special interest to you.  I've got my hands on a bunch of my old commodore files, which I transferred from 1581 disks.   Here's the catch.  They're in an AMIGA format called "wrp mfm".  At the time when I saved them, there was no utilities to transfer 1581 disks to PC, and I didn't want to lose the files that I had.  One particular treasure is Maverick 1581.  If you know anyone who has an Amiga, we could potentially get these files into a usable format!

 Did you look at Aminet?

 Sounds like mfm format to me. It is close to ADF.
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

And so, with the MFMWarp.lha package, I will be able to dearchive the disks.  Is that correct?
