Re: Where have all the buffers gone? (long time passing...)

[Matthew Carlson <carlson@rahul.net>]

Well, sence I have gotten so much help from this newsgroup I will help out.

First off what are you using to convert? I have used a shareware program 
that puts a disk image of a DOS3.3 disk in a file and runs that from 
GSOS, and maybe also prodos. I will send it to you if you like. I think I 
got if off compuserve a long time ago (before I knew about the internet, 
well there wasn't really one). 

However, check out ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu in /systems/apple2, it will 
have it. Sorry I don't remember it's exact name off hand.

I don't have a clue what the buffers problem is. I get the same thing 
when I try to convert stuff. But, this utility doesn't seam to have the 
problem for the programs I have converted.
