If you need to extract the LLINK202.EMS file from the image and do not have
any means of doing so, I can probably get it off the image for you.  Some
time ago I wrote an image filing system for RISC OS which handles CP/M discs,
so it should be easy to do.

(I expect there are tools for other platforms but I don't tknow what they
are.)
