Winmount: Mounting Large Archives From Floppy

Hi! I use floppies and had an issue with mounting archives from floppies: sometimes, there's not enough room for the temporary file that WinMount uses when updating an archive file. Now, I have a solution: a batch file that first copies the file to a temporary folder, mount from there then, when finished, move the file back to the floppy. Does anybody want me to post the file?

BTW, does anybody here use floppies? And, how much does WinMount cost to register?

 

I haven't used floppies in 25 years!

WinMount costs $56.35.

I am foolish enough to use floppies--and enjoy it. Thank you for the price!

 

There's also a free version.

I have the free version, but it only allows one archive to be mounted at a time. BTW, I wanted to post a batch file to solve an issue with WinMount and floppies.

 

If you think it might help, upload it.

 

Okay, here it is:
------------------------------
@echo off
echo Mounting your WinMount drive now...
::Change the path in the next line to the one of your WinMount installation:
set winmountpath="C:\Program Files\WinMount\WinMount.exe"
::Change the path in the next line to the desired work folder:
set tmppath="%temp%\%~nx1"
copy "%1" %tmppath%
start "" %winmountpath% -M %tmppath% -attach -drv:z
pause
echo Saving new data...
del "%1"
copy "%tmppath%" %1
if errorlevel 1 echo Error writing new file! & goto err
del "%tmppath%"
echo Done!
:err
pause
