Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.12
Keir Fraser's "Greaseweazle" does - similar to Kryoflux - read the magnetic information on a floppy disk independently from the format used and saves as much information as possible to generate a so-called "Flux Level Image" in Supercard format (SCP), which enables reading and back-writing of copy-protected disks (amiga-news.de reported)

The adapter gets connected between a floppy disk drive - e.g. a standard 3.5" PC one - and a USB port of the PC or Mac. Today version 1.12 of the Greaseweazle Tools was released providing the following changes:
  • New disk formats:
    • Commodore 1541 (C64) GCR: commodore.1541
    • IBM: ibm.320
    • Dragon32, Dragon64: dragon...
    • Tandy CoCo: coco...
  • New image format: D64 (C64 CBMDOS GCR disks)
  • ibm: Improve layout of very full tracks
  • ibm: Warn on oversize tracks (data too large to fit)
  • ibm: Allow gapbyte value to be specified in diskdef
  • d88: Remove duplicate sectors from oversize tracks
