Roger Cornelius writes about retrieving source code from a file saved
"on top of" his original file (a nightmare indeed!).  He mentions that 
the methods might not be of use or interest to SpartaDOS users, but
the idea is similar to a common practice Sparta prorgammers have access
to.

ICD, the makers of SpartaDOS, have a "SpartaDOS Toolkit" that contains
a wonderful sector editor.  You can mark individual sectors to resave into
another complete file, and even editor the disks' directory sectors and
maps.  Just thought I would post this in case anyone was interested.  (The
editor, called DISKRX.COM, will also work on non-Sparta disks, without
some of the options, of course!)
