Use a volt meter to determine the voltages to the IIGS power
supply plug. Use markable tape and a pen to mark the voltages.
Do the same with the Mac power supply. Now cut and splice
the Mac power supply's wires to the IIGS power supply's
plug.
That should do it. Make very sure you check and double
check that you did it right, though, and even then take
out all your peripheral cards to minimize risk. My first
attempt at adapting a PC power supply for the IIGS fried
the IIGS motherboard because I wired it in exactly the
REVERSE order. ;-(
