	If you have a copy of COPYIIPLUS lurking in a corner of your GS,
dust it off and you can batch copy the Dos 3.3 text files (hi-ascii) to
Prodos text files (lo-ascii).  The hi-ascii to lo-ascii is done automatically.
You still have to use BSW to change binary to text, but the rest of the
process would be fairly quick.
