Hey Everyone!
I wanted to let any of the OS 1.3 fans/users out there to know some brand new software has dropped for it today. It's called Disk Mimic and it lets 1.3 users mount virtual floppy drives and "insert and eject" ADF files right from the desktop. You can use it via the CLI or a very cool looking and user friendly User Interface.
Yes, there is other software out there that allows this but it requires 2.0+ to run (and sometimes an 020). Disk Mimic is extremely lightweight, and free.
I made a video where I ultimately demo the software.

I also made an
article version where you can download the entire package to install it to your own machines.
You can install it manually following the very nicely written instructions, or you can use the included Installer program and click a couple of buttons - it'll do the rest.
Hope any of the 1.3 folks here give it a shot - it's now part of my must-have software collection.
P.S.
It has been submitted to Aminet as well and should appear there soon.
Here are some screenshots of what it looks like:
