FMT.DOC is the original file which I downloaded from Gene
Plantz' Chicago bulletin board. It suggests editing out FMT.BAT,
INPUT.BAT and a file called BRK, then converting BRK to CHK.COM.
These three files are part of this .LBR file.
I found the original program a little too austere, so I
added a CHKDSK after formatting. It goes away quickly. If you
want it to last, either remove the CLS's from FMT.BAT, or move
them.
I needed to a batch of single sided, 9 sectors per track
disk. FMT-1.BAT and CHK-1.COM do this job in exactly the same
way as FMT.BAT and CHK.COM do for double sided, 9 sectors per
track. They are also part of this .LBR file.
