Not all disks have catalogs.  They may have hardcoded tracks and sectors
coded into the program and are accessed directly through a RWTS routine.

The easiest way to pull files off a disk that does have an accessible
directory in a standard location would be inside the emulator itself
using FID, Copy ][ Plus, or the Finder.  (Or using the real hardware.)

Yes, there is probably quite a few of these utilities available. Spend some
time in the asimov site under the utility directory
ftp://ftp.apple.asimov.net/pub/apple_II/utility/. I found one there called
a2_dos_utils_v1.zip. I suspect there is lots of other utils there, if you
spend some time poking around. Have fun.

one other possibility:

http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/modules/by-module/AppleII/

perl module/script which does this amongst other things.
