ProDOS FS built-in to Mac System 7.5



Mac System 7.5 (or, "Mac OS 7.5" as its now called) includes support for
reading and writing to Apple II ProDOS disks as part of its standard
setup. As far as I can tell, it's functionally identical to the old ProDOS
FS extension that was part of the //e emulation card support software.

The big surprise (to me) is that they hid it inside the PC Exchange
control panel which most marketing info says is for MS-DOS and OS/2 disks.
I haven't seen it mentioned in any of the marketing material... It's
actually PC and A2 disk support, but I guess they didn't feel like
changing the name of the Control Panel...
