[Description of MS-DOS disk utility deleted]

Here's a better challenge: DOS:

Try this scenario.

1> mount dosa:
;Stick 3.5" MS-DOS disk in df0:
1> copy dosa:#?.c ram:
;Stick amiga floppy in df0:
1> copy ram: df0:

Now ALL your disk utilities work on DOS disks. This is the Amiga way to do it.
You might need 'dosmount' and 'dosunmount' commands that tell AmigaDOS to
get out of the way. How about:

1> mount dos:
1> dosmount dos: df1:
1> copy dos: df0: all
1> dosunmount df1:
