FILE TRANSLATION HELP: A2 to IBM and to Mac

Some readers of this list have seen my teaching disk, SEBUGG'S
KALEIDOSCOPES. This disk has Ap[pleworks docs files on Side A, and DOS
3.3 kaleidoscopes on side B. The 45 Kaleidoscopes are selectable with a
simple HELLO menu screen. Joe Kohn reviewed this disk (favorably) in
ShareWare Solutions II (1994). The disk teaches a few principles about
the perceptual psychology of symmetry.
I teach perceptual psychology at college. The editor of a journal,
TEACHING OF PSYCHOLOGY, has heard about this disk, and has asked me to
write an article about it for the TEACHING OF PSYCHOLOGY journal.
At the moment, all I have is the Apple II version of the disk. It fills
both sides of a 5.25" floppy.
CAN ANYONE TRANSLATE THIS DISK INTO SELF-B0OTING DISKS FOR MAC AND FOR IBM?
Most readers of the journal have Mac or IBM, and I will need to have
versions available to be read by their IBM or Mac computers.
_Can anyone do this translation from Apple II to IBM, or from Apple II to
Mac?_
Ideally, the translated disks would be self-booting and easily loaded and
played by Mac or IBM users.
The speed of these kaleidoscopes is just right on the one meg speed of
the Apple II. When translating, approximately the same speed of the
display-change should be maintained, even though Macs and IBMs have
super-fast processors.
If interested, then please contact me. The journal does not pay authors
any money for articles, but anyone who helps to produce the IBM and Mac
disks will be fully acknowledged in the ournal article.
If you want to try the disk first, send me your postal address and I will
mail a disk to you ---- the disk can be kept.
Thanks.
