Fellow enthusiasts,
I am updating the unix 'file' command to identify the new WOZ disk
image format and at the same time I thought I would update the 2MG
detection magic.
The only documentation I can find is here
http://apple2.org.za/gswv/a2zine/Docs/DiskImage_2MG_Info.txt
which details the following Creator ID's
XGS! XGS
WOOF Sweet 16
ShIm Sheppy's ImageMaker
CTKG Catakig
B2TR Bernie ][ the Rescue
!nfc ASIMOV 2
I have identified the following as well
>BD< Brutal Deluxe's Cadius
CdrP CiderPress
Vi][ Virtual ][
Does anybody know what software was used to create 2MG images with the
following ID's ?
SHEP
RVLW
pdos
Thanks

ProFUSE (mkfs-profuse) uses PRFS.

It is. I downloaded the latest code, created an image with it, and
looked at the header. it's 'SHEP'.

Neither AC nor ADTPro create .2mg files, so they don't ever modify the
header.
