Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.11
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 1.11 of the Greaseweazle Tools was released providing the following changes:
  • New disk formats:
    • Macintosh GCR: mac.400, mac.800
    • DEC: dec.rx01, dec.rx02
    • MSX: msx.1d, msx.1dd, msx.2d, msx.2dd
    • Osborne 1: occ1.sd, occ1.dd
  • HFE: Support interface= and encoding= header bytes
  • TRS-80: Support FA DAM mark for directory sectors
  • Applesauce: Support decoding *.a2r Applesauce image files
