Now that you have a Mac, go to the Ground archive, go into the
Mac directory and download ProDOSifier and ProTYPE...both of those
programs set Apple II filetypes on the Mac end and makes it easier
for the Mac to know what to do with the file when it copies it
over to a ProDOS disk.

The Mac likes to add a resource fork to all files it copies over
to a ProDOS disk so it can keep track of the original filetype
that it was on the Mac end.  If it's a ProDOS filetype, it won't
add the resource fork...or at least it's not supposed to...
