Usage:

-AMIGA:

 CPCD2DSK CPCDFILE/A DSKFILE

 CPCDFILE: name of the EmuCPC .CPCD disk image
 DSKFILE:  basename of the CPCEmu .DSK disk images (optional)

-x86 (Linux, Win32):

 cpcd2dsk <cpcdfile> [dskfile]

 cpcdfile: name of the EmuCPC .CPCD disk image
 dskfile:  basename of the CPCEmu .DSK disk images (optional)


The output files will be named "#?_A.DSK" & "#?_B.DSK."


Examples:

1. CPCD2DSK Games01

   will convert "Games01" to "Games01_A.DSK" (& "Games01_B.DSK")

2. CPCD2DSK Games01.CPCD

   will convert "Games01.CPCD" to "Games01_A.DSK" (& "Games01_B.DSK")
   (the extension ".CPCD" will be automatically cut off)

3. CPCD2DSK Games01.CPCD Spiele01.DSK

   will convert "Games01.CPCD" to "Spiele01_A.DSK" (& "Spiele01_B.DSK")
   (the ".DSK" extension of the output file will be recognized and is handled
   correctly! No "#?.DSK_?.DSK" files...)
