I have used MacSee successfully to read Mac 1.44 Mb Floppys from a PC. I think that the commercial version is 4.0. Some anon. FTP sites have a shareware version of 2.1 (macsee21.zip) or a demo of 3.0. The shareware version doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but will read and write ascii and macbinary. The developer is Reevesoft. (Both DOS & Windows) I hope this helps! Doug Heiser (HLD@INEL.GOV) Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.apps,biz.comp.software Subject: Re: Mac to DOS from DOS machines?
