[comp.sys.cbm] convert 2.5DA

pcr@genrad.com (Perry Rothermel) (07/08/90)

I down loaded convert 2.5da from Q-link to convert some files to be used for
GEOS128. After loading and running convert 2.5da, I end up with a .usr
 file called convert(da), but nothing else happens. What do I do now?
 How do I get fils converted to be used by my copy of GEOS128?
 Please help!

   The .usr file you get is a GEOS file.  You should boot GEOS, open
the disk in which the .usr file is, and run it from there (double
clicking your mouse).

On GEOS convert (da). DA stands for disk accessory. Just take your cursor
up to the geos box on the desktop and you will see convert added to your list
commands. This utility is very handy as it allows more than one file to be
converted at once. It does however still prompt you between each file.
              Thanks,

Run the USR file under GEOS to convert your files.
