/* The MAKEIMG.BAS and MAKEIMG.EXE utilities */
==The MAKEIMG.BAS and MAKEIMG.EXE utilities==
===MAKEIMG.BAS===<br />
Although this utility should not be your first option, you can use it to make a new empty CP/M disk image file.<br />
In case you decide to use it make sure you have a FAT aware DOS installed in your system. MAKEIMG makes use of the firmware calls CAS_OUT_OPEN, CAS_OUT_CLOSE and CAS_OUT_CHAR so your DOS must support them.<br />
Here is a small tutorial on how to setup and use a CP/M image file: https://youtu.be/GMWsRzNhQTM<br />
<br />
===MAKEIMG.EXE===<br />
This utility is a [[SymbOS]] application.<br />
Use this utility to create your CP/M hard disk images from within [[SymbOS]]. It is a bit faster than its Basic counterpart. It takes between 25 and 60 (or more) minutes for your image file to be created, depending on the characteristics of your media. Disable your screen saver before using it in order to gain some speed.<br />
