- I've tried that. All it told me was what I already said. It's a -disk-
- archive. Contained in that rather large archive file is just one thing:
- a disk image. As such, I need to un-nulib it onto an 800K disk, or find a
- unix based program that can read (and extract from) a unix file that
- represents an 800K apple disk. Anybody got any ideas for that one?
