This plugin gives Total Commander access to raw disk images created
i.e. with RAWREAD or similar utilities normally run under Linux.

Key functions are:

 - handle long filenames

 - create harddisk images (2..32MB) with or without master boot record
 - copy files from and to IMG
 - create/delete files/directories within IMG
 - make image bootable (bootable, when copied back to a physical disk).
   Requires a bootblock datafile. You can rip the bootblock of a formatted
   disk in your floopy drive with a supplied utility.
   To get the bootblock from the disk in A: to a file named BOOTBLK.BIN
   type GETBOOT A: BOOTBLK.BIN
 - Create a master boot record (MBR) with a single partition containing
   the files you copy into the image. This option is only available with HD
   images. A MBR file is included (FREEDOS under GNU GPL, www.freedos.org)
