Add ability to specify side to rip when using -ss switch #21

Closed ajgbarnes closed 4 years ago

ajgbarnes commented 4 years ago

I extended the -ss switch to optionally include a side to rip e.g. -ss 0 or -ss 1. If nothing is specified then it defaults to 0.

For BBC DFS disks at least, this provides the following benefits:

  1. If the first side is corrupt or unwanted, then you can capture the second side to an .ssd/.sdd/other file
  2. If the second side is in a different format to the first side, then you can write to their own .ssd/.sdd file
  3. If you want to create a second disk easily for the second side then you can

Changes are in #19
