robert, My version of Quarterback Tools is v 1.3d. That is the latest
version. At least when I spoke to George Chamberlain the other day he
didn't say it was an earlier version, although come to think of it, he
didn't say it was the latest either. I've been having trouble with MAC2DOS
lately and I believe it to be caused by my CIA 8520 chips rather than the
MAC2DOS interface. After re-swapping the chips the program was again able
to copy to the mac disk, the stuffit files I needed to transfer over to my
MAC without any errors. Still, MAC2DOS has a problem not recognizing that a
disk has had files deleted and that there is now room on them. Sometimes I
must reformat a floppy that has been completely deleted of files before
mac2dos will write to it. In fact, the macintosh format program isn't
enough, I have to sometimes format it as an amiga disk, then a mac disk or
use a third party macintosh format program that 'zeroes' the disk. Anyway
George is aware of its problems and would like more info on it from me or
anyone else who has documented problems with MAC2DOS version 1.1d.
