Re: Help with Sys 5 for IIGS



Supertimer wrote noted below in quotes and I reply:

"
The problem.  PC users can't download it without messing up the
Mac info!  Yes, I have tried to download it and email it to a Mac
user.  The Mac user said he could not unpack it.  I used the IIGS
program "Clone," to extract the DiskCopy image and it tested fine,
but it seems once downloaded to a PC, Macs won't touch it.

What is required is for a *MAC* user to download it through the
Mac version of AOL and then BinHex encode it before uploading
it to an Apple II FTP site.  This will once and for all solve the
chicken and the egg problem.

If only a Mac using AOL user would be willing to do the grunt
work."

My reply: I'm an AOL member using a Mac.  What you request is not 
a biggie for me to do.  Consider the grunt work done by days end
and look for it in both Ground, ACN (apple.cabi.net) and it's mirrors,
by night-fall (PDT) :).
