Ahh, I remember that workflow well!

Couple years ago, I wrote some trivial batchfiles which chained imdu and cmios9 with some logic to create hierarchical directories from CMI library and other archival physical floppies, for the CMI30A library and iphone app.
And you were a great help with info about cmios9 when I desparately needed it.

Thanks again, Michael!

So far, the standard workflow for the extraction of samples from an imd-file is:

1) imdu.com file.imd file.bin /B

2) cmios9 -r -q1 file.bin

-> use "vc2wav *" to convert all VC files into WAV

In my opinion, it might be useful to write open source multiplatform tools “imd2bin” and “bin2imd” which could replace the old DOS programs. (Perhaps, somebody already wrote such tools, I have not searched for them yet.)

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
