-typeTYPE
              Determines which driver is to be used.

       -retryCOUNT
              Set the number of times to attempt to read the disc in case of error.

       -compCOMP
              Select  the  compression  method  used on the source disc image file (has no effect when reading a
              floppy disc).

       -sideSIDE
              Determines which side (0 or 1) of the disc (image) is to be identified.

       -formatFORMAT
              Selects a fixed format. Should not be necessary.

       -apricot
              Forces the program to convert to Apricot format; if the boot sector is already in Apricot  format,
              does nothing.

       -pcdos Forces the program to convert to PCDOS format; if the boot sector is already in PCDOS format, does
              nothing.  If  neither -pcdos nor -apricot is supplied, the boot sector will be set to the opposite
              of whatever is currently in use.
