I don't believe Apple File Exchange (AFE) is any longer included with Mac
System Software... AFE has been replaced with PC Excahnge 2.0.x which
comes with System 7.5.x... It allows MS-DOS and ProDOS floppies and hard
drives to be used on the Mac desktop.  (I believe it uses most of the
exact same code as the ProDOS File System extension because some of the
same bugs exists still)
