Dosmaster and Prodos

Hi!
I recently found a 15 MB '.po' image in Asimov's "Unsorted"
directory that is set up to hold 110 DOS 3.3 disk images. While
trying to get access to the those DOS 3.3 images I wound up digging
into Glen Bredon's programs to see how they work. I believe I've
learned enough about DOSMaster to be able to answer questions about
it.
To get files in and out of the DOS 3.3 images maintained by
DOSMaster you need to run the the program named "FUD" from the DOS 3.3
side. It would be nice to maintain the DOS 3.3 images from ProDOS but
Glen apparently never wrote such a program.
I've created a 100 MB Zip cart with three 32 MB ProDOS
partitions. Then I told DOSMaster to make room for 200 DOS 3.3 images
on each of the first two ProDOS partitions. While trying to get "FUD"
copied into a DOS 3.3 image I found an bug in "REVISE.DM". It chopped
4096 bytes off the file "DOD.3.3" when "REVISE.DM" rewrote it. I'm
about to see if I can find the bug.
