Reading Apple disks on PC

[bbry@bu.edu (Bryony Bechtold)]

I have a collection of text which is contained in various Apple2 formatted 
disks, ranging from a lot of very old DOS 3.3 files on 5.25" disks, as well
as ProDOS files on 5.25" and 3.5" disks.  

I know that the 3.5" prodos disks can be read on a Macintosh using the Apple
File Convert program, but I need to get most of these files into Unix format
on a NeXT (the NeXT doesn't support 5.25" drives at all, and I don't have 
much hope of such a utility existing on it, so I'm asking for a PC MSDOS 
version instead, since the NeXT can read/write those disks with no trouble).

Any suggestions/advice (short of setting up the Apple2 on a null modem and
doing things the realllllllllllllly slow way. 

thanks
