- Extract is a file in disk image extraction utility. An image is a file which
- contains all the floppy data (file, FATs, boot sector, directory...). You can
- create an image file with WinImage (a Windows 3.1 or Windows NT
- shareware I wrote which create and manage image file, and has a
- superset of Extract functionnality) and a lot of Dos based disk copy
- utility : Wimage (in FdFormat utility) from C.H. HochstΣtter, DrDos 6 and
- OS/2 2.x diskimage utility, DCF (Disk Copy Fast) from Chang Ping Lee,
- DF (Disk Image File Utility) from Mark Vitt, Super-DiskCopy from Super
- Software, SabDu from S.A. Berman, Disk-RW from K. Hartnegg,

- 80 % of the diskcopy tools which can make image I test are compatible
