- Below is an edited "Programme_Changes" file enclosed on the DiskMaster II
- V2.1a release disk I received in the mail. The only part edited is the
- listing of the new commands and how to use them. Since I don't represent
- Progressive outside of being a happy DiskMaster II owner, I figured they'd
- prefer not handing out the command syntax. The upgrade cost from V2.0 cost
- $17.00 total and I had to send them my original. If you haven't received
- an update notice, give PPI a call.
