Reading various format 5.25" floppies on a PC

I think there is some sort of program that actually copies floppy disks
verbatum, right down to the bit patterns encountered, a true mirror image.

I know the Amiga software can be archived to CD-ROM, then manipulated by any
PC that handles the ROM filesystem. Still, with the GCC encoding of Apple
and Commodore disks, you might have a problem.

Basic language programs can be easily saved as a text file, but ML might be
a trick getting back onto a readable disk without a native CPU/System doing
the work.

Good luck,
