- Damien, PFS:file is a pascal program. The files are in pascal
- format. There is a way to convert the files but it's a real pain.
- If you have two computers it's not to bad, if you don't you need a
- friend with a modem. With two computers you need a null modem cable,
- one computer running PFS, one running a termal program (proterm will
- do) that can capture ascii to disk (by modem you have to make a
- conection and exit the term software without hanging up on one end
- and run PFS). Then you have PFS print to the modem/null modem and
- save it as ascii on the other computer . You can then import the
- ascii file into appleworks.
