What EXACTLY is the problem of HFS FST?

mmm... that's interesting. I don't know GS has so many applications.

FTA's stuffs?

:  15MB of Sounds

rSound format?

:  31MB of Stacks

HyperCard or HyperStudio or both?

:  2MB of Finder Extensions
:  3MB of NDAs

What about CDevs and Inits?

:  35MB of Graphics

Please put in GS native format and some other popular format like GIF...
Not MacPaint!

:  8MB of AppleWorks

What about AWGS templates?

:  2MB of bitmap fonts

Some suggestions:

Does it contain: Paintworks animation? FLI animation? (GS+ has a cool FLI
converter) MOD songs? MIDI? synthLab music? SoundSmith music?
