1) Introduction
===============
DAA2ISO is an open source command-line/GUI tool for converting single
and multipart DAA and GBI images to the original ISO format.
The DAA image (Direct Access Archive) in fact is just a compressed
CD/DVD ISO which can be created through the commercial program
PowerISO.

2) Usage on Windows
===================
Using DAA2ISO on Windows is really a joke, just double click on
DAA2ISO.exe and the tool will open a DOS-like window which contains
all the needed informations about the status of conversion, then you
will need to choose the input DAA file you want to convert and
subsequently the name of the ISO file you want to create.
The tool automatically supports multipart files so it's enough that
you select only the first one (like file.part01.daa).
If you want to use the tool from the command-line, so specifying the
input and output files manually as in the older versions of the tool,
you can do it too since DAA2ISO automatically recognizes if it has
been launched from the console (cmd.exe) or through double-click.
Just specify the input DAA file and the output ISO file you want to
create like in the examples of the subsequent section.
Remember that you can also associate the DAA extension to DAA2ISO, so
when you will double-click on these files DAA2ISO will popup and will
allow you to choose the output ISO immediately or you can also
drag'n'drop the DAA file directly on DAA2ISO.EXE.
