     Does anyone out there have any read/write/format algorithm(s) for the
1771 or 1791 floppy-disk controller chips?  Someone(I don't remember who)
advised me to use a 2795, but since I have a 1791 and have a tight budget
I thought I could use what I have until I start working five days a week
again.  What are the gotchas and how can I work around them?
