I've also run into problems with a program that doesn't understand the
'.inf' type archives found on some of the BBC games websites, where
the Acorn metadata is stored in a separate file. Some disk-image
utilities will cope with this fine, others don't and I have to set all
the load/exec addresses manually, one at a time.

Having a single program that would deal with various DFS and ADFS
images and is able to import from Acorn zip files and '.inf' type
files would be very nice.
