manage the floppy images of a floppy drive emulator.
One such emulator is the SFR1M44-U100K GoTek USB SSD

1.44MB floppy images on a single small USB device.
( 1000 1.44MB floppy images require 1.5GB of storage. )
[ The Gotek User Manual includes additional information. ]
The program supports the following functionality:
1) RAW reading, RAW writing, and
formatting of a floppy disk.
2) Formatting a USB device to hold
1000 floppy images.
3) Saving or Loading the USB image of
1000 floppy images to/from a file.
4) Reading, Writing, and Formatting of individual
floppy images on the 1000 floppy image
USB drive.
5) The adding/editing descriptions for each
individual floppy image saved to the
1000 floppy image USB drive.
