Re: question on Standards for files

[jmholmes@swbell.net (John)]

KEGS an emulator for Linux that can actually write in a prodos or HFS format 
to a 3.5" floppy drive and possibly to a 5.25" drive as well from what I 
gathered..  The ones for NT, 95/98 can't write to the floppy drive due to the 
direct hardware calls that are necessary to write in a different format...  It 
can be obtained at...
