Re: Apple II version of Activision's H.E.R.O.

    Where?  I have all versions that where made public including
Shrink-it II+ and UnShrink-It II+. They are all ProDos based, I don't
think Andy made a DOS 3.3 version.  Are you sure you are thinking of
Shrink-IT?    The only way Shrink-IT can use a DOS 3.3 disk is to make
a  SDK of it ( 5 1/4  or 3 1/2disk image shrunk). Then only unShrink-IT
to another 5 1/4 disk (or 3 1/2 if you where using UniDos or something
like that).  Shrink-IT can not work with DOS 3.3 files directly at all.
