        !             6: 
        !             7:     This program is designed to show how to access a physical floppy
        !             8:     disk using the Win32 API set.
        !             9: 
        !            10:     This program has two major functions.
        !            11: 
        !            12:         - It can be used to display the geometry of a disk
        !            13: 
        !            14:             mfmt -g a:
        !            15: 
        !            16:         - It can be used to produce a disk image, or to write a disk
        !            17:           image to a floppy.
        !            18: 
        !            19:             mfmt -c a: bootdisk         - produce a disk image of a:

        !            21:             mfmt -c bootdisk a:         - make a: identical to bootdisk image
        !            22: 
        !            23:     This program is very very simple. Minimal error checking is done. It is

        !            27: 
        !            28:         - Read a disk's geometry
        !            29: 
        !            30:         - Perform a low level format operation
        !            31: 
        !            32:         - read and write physical sectors
