         Turbo Disk Utility v1.0



 "Damn, another DCU'shka!" - You say and
're wrong! This program can not
only format, check, restore discs, and copy them as a
formatting, and without it. Vkradtse
tell the story of the creation of this program: When we 
completed the Super Text Viewer v1.3 and Sample Editor v2.0, 
then use there is a disk driver (which works

faster than all other existing at the moment) worked correctly 
is not at all disks, but only on drives formatted with LgTrk = 
2. This format does not support my favorite program - FUT v2.1, 
a Only RDS v3.0, which does not work on

my computer (a little note to author
this program: well really it was so
difficult to place interrupt table is not in
of the printer, and anywhere from an address
32768 to 65535? Cool, in fact, a program
and with such offensive nedoskatkom!). What should I do? This 
is where the idea to make your own fast formatter, but for this 
case was not there and have been added and others function. So 
what we have at the moment: 

 The fastest disk operations: (data
given without errors)


           Check - 30 seconds

           Restore - 120 seconds

            Format - 60 seconds
Copy (A to A) - 90 seconds! (In 128kb mode)
Copy 'Format (A to A) - 120 seconds! (In 128kb mode)

 Copying a 128-m mode - up to 6 times,
256 meters - over 3 times in a 48-m mode I measurements
did not produce.

 The best and most stable in the TURBO
DISK DRIVER, designed by Alexey Porfir'eva that works on all 
models Speccy. It should say this: if you

turbo VG-scale, it sometimes may
an error when reading / writing, but
Actually it just throws the driver.
So what or disable Verify, or press R
- And the operation will continue.

 Now I will tell you about themselves functions of the program:

0. Change Disk: Auto / Manual - change drive
copying - automatic or
key is pressed.

1. Format - format of the drive.

2. Check - check the disk. If in the process
validation errors are found, they will be restored.

3. Restore - restore disk.

4. Copy 'Format - Copy a disk with
formatting.

5. Copy - Copy a disk.

6. Verify: Off / On Off / vklichenie
checking for transactions Format, Restore,
Copy 'Format and Copy.

7. Input Disk: A, B, C, D - the job disk,
which will be made read while copying. Just the job for disk 
operations Format, Check, Restore. 

8. Output Disk: A, B, C, D - the job drive
which will record at
copying.

9. Catalogue - browse the catalog drive.

 When an error occurs the following message:


                      Retry / Abort / Ignore


  I hope everything is clear!

 It remains to tell you that, would you
not very prideralis to the interface of the program - it takes 
just 11 sectors, and performance with this interface is greatly 
increased, than, for example, work with window-pointer 
interface. It now remains to describe what we plan to insert 
into the next version of TDU: 

 - Set the first and last tracks
copying. - Copy disks not TrDos
format. Operate this function will be as follows: first we 
analyze the structure of the disk, and then, created Table is 
made up, and table will be unloaded - ie you can create a table 
of all non-standard disc, and then simply selecting the desired 
make up. With this approach greatly increased the speed of 
copying, and he will be relieved of glitches with the 
positioning, which occurs in Softcopy v1.x  - Copying from the 
HDD and the HDD (SMUC driver on Scorpion). Moreover, the choice 
of a floppy image on the screw will be produced from the 
program that will save you from climbing tudaobratno the 
Service Monitor. 

 That's all, give the personal Greatings:
