USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
It's not really good enough to release, but I decided, eh, I don't care.

A way of sending a raw diskette image over serial to a vintage 8086+ DOS PC.
Track by track, written to disk immediately, so it's quite lightweight.
Uses bios calls for disk and screen access.
Polled IO for serial.
I believe it will work on a 5150 with 64k and DOS 2.1 and a single floppy drive.
In testing with a 5150 with a 360k drive it supported 9600 baud with a 8250 serial card and 115200 with a 16550-ish chipset card.
Thanks!
Matt
