[comp.sys.apple] ProSel and File Types

sjklafke@csd4.milw.wisc.edu (Scott James Klafke) (04/22/89)

Well,

At the end of this message, there will be the most <Hopefully> updated
list of Apple File Types (sans Auxtypes). If you need to know all the
auxtypes, I recommend getting FAZ II. Very nice program!

About ProSEL: I use ProSEL 8 and have abolutly NO problems with it. I
find it better than the other selectors available (and believe me,
with 60 megs, you need a selector). The utilities that come with it
are priceless, and have saved me many times. It is text based (not
graphics, like Mouse Desk), so it is much quicker. It also uses the
mouse and the keyboard, and allows Mousetext in the selector menu.

I do have one gripe though, the Beach.Comber 32 (for 60 meg hd's)
will ONLY work on a GS, which I don't have, but until the 30 meg        
partition is over 20 megs, Beach.Comber 20 does the job nicely.
(BC is disk optimizer, BTW.).
