I downloaded a copy of this archive a couple of weeks ago intending to
have a play when time becomes available. The files inside the archive
indicate that they are DART format in their headers and mount OK on
this Mac using Shrinkwrap 2.1. I haven't tried writing them as floppy
disks yet as I don't have a suitable Mac handy. Let me know if you have
problems getting hold of a copy of Shrinkwrap.
