Go to my web site (dimension18.cjb.net) and download my ProDOSifier
program. Once you get the file decompressed, drop the basic.system file
onto it, click Individually, and enter SYS as the file type and 0 as the
aux type.

You can drop a whole bunch of files onto the program at once. If you click
All at Once you can set them all to the same file type. If you click
Individually it will give you seperate file type and aux type prompts for
each file.

For the file type, you can enter a three letter nmeumonic (sp?), a decimal
number, or a two-digit hexadecimal number preceded by a $. For the aux
type you can enter a decimal number or a four-digit hexadecimal number
preceded by a $.

In order for the program to work, you'll need to have AppleScript
installed. If you have a recent version of System Software (7.5 or later),
you should already have it installed. If you have any problems with
ProDOSifier, e-mail me at jonrelay@napanet.net.

Hope this helps!
