   I think he knows.   
      
   I have also commented this, many years ago, to Keil. It is possible he   
   changed it a little so now it is possible to search and find how to do   
   in his documentation.   
      
   I think the problem is that changing the virtual disk to a special one   
   is not the obvious way. It would have been easier if it was a setting   
   from the F5 setup page.   
      
   Also of course the emulator is MS-DOS so it see/uses only 8.3 type   
   filenames and it makes the real drive virtual disks to have very cryptic   
   names. (I actually gave him example source code for supporting long   
   filenames from MS-DOS when available (Win95, Win98 and WinMe I think)).   
      
   Actually maybe you should rewrite his documentation so that you would   
   have found it/understood how to do and send it to him as a suggestion.   
   He might update it, or it might get into the next version. A separate   
   real disk explanation might also be something, with all the pros and cons...   
      
   David Keil's emulator is great and I use it all the time. I have got it   
   to work on the latest WinXP pc's though it was tricky (had to specify   
   'C:\windows\system32\COMMAND.COM C:\windows\system32 /c' on the call,   
   there are two MS-DOS emulators CMD and COMMAND and CMD is the default).   
   Of course it can't do real disks then...
