Prodos and SOS data files are interchangable.  /// Easy Pieces is
almost identical to AppleWorks and their data files are interchangeable.
The Apple /// cannot run prodos or Prodos software in the native mode.
Sine the emulation mode only has 48K you must buy a //e emulator from
Titan Technologies to run Prodos and Prodos software on the ///.
Prodos requires 64K.
