I wrote my own, not knowing where another one lived. I happen to think
in Java, so that's what it's implemented in.
Description is here:
https://github.com/RetroFloppy/transformenator/wiki/Utility-Functions#dmk2raw
Code is here:
https://github.com/RetroFloppy/transformenator/blob/master/src/org/transformenator/util/Dmk2Raw.java
The only thing of interest is the cw2dmk tool would read RX01 disks and
"double" the data - so my tool will make an attempt to detect that and
halve the data back out the other end.
