I'm seeing this in the FAQ:
----------
021- How can I unfork forked files on my Apple II?
You can do it 'by hand' using a block editor to change filetype, etc.
information in a directory block; or, you can use UnforkIt. UnforkIt is a
BASIC program by Ivan Drucker which splits a forked file into two files,
neither of which is forked.

How can I unfork the files by hand? I do have the ProDOS Exercisor. It's
crude, but I can change file types. What else do I need to change to
unfork a file?
Thanks!
