Re: Getting files from a pc => mac => IIGS and/or a IIe

Lockar,

Hope you get better soon.
Thank you for the note - I'll be waiting ... :)

====================

The mac can read the PC disk as a PC disk and won't try to fork it up.

Now that I didn't realise. It was the reason I updated to 7.5.5 - so
that I could try PC Exchange, but didn't realise it wouldn't add a
resource fork to those files. So I should in theory be able to copy
them to the mac (in PC format) then back to an 800kb disk (formatted as
Prodos or HFS or doesn't it matter?) then over to the IIGS ...

I'll try that now ...


Thanks all,
Steve
