I'd say better plan to use only Appleshare to access 'em. I wouldn't expect
to get hold of tech info, and if you paid attention to the people who wrote
the system software when they used to post here, new FSTs often require
changes to the operating system itself to make new file systems work. I
take their word for the reason why there are no specs for writing new FSTs
over what Apple haters claim is the reason.
