    I have been having some problems with errors showing up on some of
the disks that I use frequently.  When this happens, the disk gets
to be more of a bother to work with than is worth it.  Has anyone
written any utilities to repair bad tracks/sectors on disks?
    If not, is there anyone out there at Amiga or where-ever who
could enlighten some of us on how to use the TrackDisk device in
order to repair/recover bad tracks?  If so, I would gladly put the
hours in to writing a program to do this, but cannot find enough
about the disks and/or errors to do this.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated by all, I am sure!
