PCW Explorer
PCW Explorer is a graphical browser for PCW discs. In its current incarnation, it can extract files and convert image files in common PCW formats to .JPG and .PNG.
PCW Explorer is written using the wxWidgets framework, so it can be compiled for Unix or Windows.
Latest version: 0.3.0
This version has been updated to run on top of LibDsk, allowing disk image files to be browsed. I haven't really looked at this for a couple of years, so I don't know how well it'll work.

Links
- Under Windows 2000 / XP / Vista, I suggest you install
FDRAWCMD.SYS and manually
select it (choose the 'ntwdm' driver) to access non-standard PCW
formats.
- The CP/M filesystem support in PCW Explorer comes from cpmtools.
- Under DOS or CP/M, you can use MSODBALL to convert your discs to DOS format.
