I am looking for a utility program (or set of programs) to that will read ASCII files on a 3 1/2 MSDos disk and copy them to an Amiga disk. Also to copy files from the Amiga to that other format. The PCUtils in AmigaDos 1.3 only work with a 5 1/4 inch drive. I am looking for the same thing using the Amiga 3.5 inch drives.

Several people have sent email with these answers: A commercial program called CrossDos. There is a public domain version that allows one to try out the program, but this version will not write files. A public domain program called msh on Fish 327. Thanks to all who responded.

It is copyrighted, though the versions released on the net and on Fish disks 327 and 381 (or was it 382?) are freely distributable. This fact is clearly mentioned in the documentation and all source files.

My apologies. I received a reference to the Fish disk, and posted the info to the net before I had the opportunity to actually procure the disk complete with documentation on SHAREWARE and other useful information.
