`13.Mar.2024` Arne Urbaniak (E-Mail)	Amiga disks on PC: Copy program G-Copy 0.5 Almost two years ago (amiga-news.de reported), developer Arne Urbaniak presented his copy programme G-Copy for reading and writing Amiga ADF data on a Windows PC. G-Copy, which is visually similar to the popular X-Copy, supports the drive controllers Greaseweazle by Keir Fraser, ADF-Drive by D. Tonn or DrawBridge (Arduino) by Rob Smith. In the new version 0.5, Greaseweazle routines have been revised and basic support for the ADF controller and DrawBridge has been added. According to the developer, the SCP routine for the ADF controller still needs to be optimised, the content of the disc is already displayed and the checkdisk function has been completed, while the basic control of the DrawBridge now works. The user can also switch between German and English layouts and switch the sound on and off. Visitors to the ARC (Amiga Ruhrpott Convention (25 May 2024 in Duisburg, Germany) can experience G-Copy live in combination with some controllers at the developer's stand.
