Diskman is a robust CLI command which can read, write and compare Amiga
880K floppy disks from/to disk or file.  In other words Diskman can read or
write 901120 bytes ADF images from or to floppy disks.  It was originally
made to be more robust than existing ADF reader/writers so it would have a
greater chance of working with old defective floppy drives with disk sense
problems and write protect sense problems.


     CLI usage: Diskman READ/K,WRITE/K,COMPARE/K,DRIVE,RETRY/K/N,NOERR/S

        READ/K          Will read a floppy disk sector by sector and save
                        it to the specified file.

        WRITE/K         Will write contents of specified file to floppy
                        disk sector by sector.

        COMPARE/K       Will compare contents of specified file with floppy
                        disk sector by sector.

        DRIVE           The drive you would like to read/write from/to.
                        The drives supported are DF0:, DF1:, DF2: and DF3:
                        If no drive is specified, DF0: is used.

        RETRY/K/N       Specify retry count from 0 to 2147483647
                        Default is 10

        NOERR           Continue even if unrecoverable read or write
                        errors are detected.


     For example:

           "Diskman READ MegaDemo1.ADF"

     - will read floppy in DF0: and save as MegaDemo1.ADF in current dir.

           "Diskman WRITE DemoColl4.ADF df1:"

     - will write DemoColl4.ADF to floppy in df1:
