Thanks. That seems to do what I need. And the computer I am handling
the disk images on does actually run Windows (don't panic, I've got
plenty of classic computers running nicer OSes)
Is there are program available that will take an
image of a CP/M disk
in .IMD format (say) and let me view the directory, extract or add
files and so on?
If so, what is recommended and where can I get it?

This is what I have used in the past:
https://www.cpm8680.com/cpmtools/
I might not say it is the recommended set of tools only because those
are Win32 executables, which may cause some people to blow a gasket.
If I had an .IMD image, I would first use the ImageDisk tools to covert the
image to a plain binary sector image.
I've used the Greaseweazle software (now there's a bit of
documentation for it!) to turn .imd into .dsk. Pity I have to go
through another step, but then file formats are like standards.
Everybody should have their own...
