Digital Instrumentation Technology Inc. makes a program called TransferPro
which allows you to write Mac and MS-DOS disks on a SparcStation. It 
appently has a GUI and also supports SCSI drives, Syquest and Brnoulli
cartridge drives. I'm supposed to be getting an evaluation copy this week.

Warning: This program is pricey: $349 for a single licence. If you simply
want a cheap way to get files from your Sun to your mac, use the built 
in commands to mount a MS-DOS disc as /pcfs and use Apple File Exchange on 
the Mac to read in the files. Messy, but cheap :-)
