# Ergon Floppy Disk Utilities

My affection for the Ergon Floppy Disk Utility program first started when I received a PD diskette containing the Ergon Demo Disk from the IQLR Software Library, IQLR-022, US $2.50. I had no idea that this disk contained the FDU program. All files on the disk were archived and had to be unzipped and even this process was painless as the programs to be unzipped were menu driven.
