- images to diskettes giving the user instructions on the number
- and type of diskettes needed and how to label each one. The syntax
- for doing this is:

- SAB Diskette Utility Version 2.1 adds support for creation of
- groups of diskette images. The user may create a control file
- that includes a description of the set of diskettes, general
- instructions, diskette image file names, and instructions to
- be displayed after each diskette image is copied to a diskette.
-
- This means that it is possible to set up a control file for an
- application and have the user prompted for each diskette to be
- inserted and instructed as to how to label each diskette.
-
- See the sample control files, TEST1200.SDG and TEST1440.SDG,
- for examples of how to set up the control files.
