Subject: Some ADFS / WDC 1770 questions.

I've been poking around all day and have come up with the following questions
(I'm attempting to write and adf/adl to adfs disc writer/formatter):

1) How easy is it to format discs using the WDC 1770? Has anybody got any
sample code?

2) When accessing the disc using OSWORD&72 I have to add 4 to the drive number
(when mounted on drive 0) to access the floppy drive 0 ( is this "rule" correct?)

3) In the documentation it indicates that the drive in the OSWORD control 
block is ORed with the "current" drive number - what is the best thing to
do here if I want to read / write sectors on drive 0 if drive 4 is current
- do I really have to change drives to 0 - if so how?

Thanks in advance for any help
