You should know that the commercial version of TeleDisk is a somewhat
different package than the old shareware one. Since it was intended for
software distribution by commercial entities, it consists of the TeleDisk
program which creates the disk image and a second program called TeleGet
- that was freely distributable - which will expand it and write it to
disk. DTC, for one, used it. I presume that the TeleDisk program also has
expand/write capabilities, but I'm not sure. Tim Shoppa???
