Stuffit Expander should be able to handle the hqx bit and dearchive a
number of archive formats (.sit, etc.) all in one pass with the proper
settings.  I use it for everything I download from DOS or OS/2.

I have one, and it works under DOS with Executor OK - in fact, I was
able to run some of the free software on the preformatted cartridge
directly. The potential problem with Windows 95 is ASPI support -
Executor needs an ASPI driver to see Mac disks in this way, and I'm not
sure if Windows 95 has a means to provide ASPI services to a DOS program
when 32-bit drivers are in use (this is possible under OS/2 and NT,
though). You can, of course, load the DOS ASPI driver under Windows 95,
but this will disable the 32-bit drivers resulting in a performance
penalty. I don't consider myself an expert on Windows 95, though, so
someone else may well be able to correct me on this.

Emilio Moreno maintains an Executor site in Spanish:

http://www.encomix.es/executor/

He has the Executor programs, and some information in Spanish.

The Mac 800k format uses variable speed drives, so you need a variable
speed drive, with suitable software, to be able to read these disks on
non-Mac machines. Central Point used to sell their Copy II Option Board
for the PC which did this on a standard PC drive, but I believe it was
withdrawn because it also allowed copy-protected software to be copied.

That involves creating a second file :).

An alternative approach is to do as IBM did when storing OS/2 Extra Attributes
on a FAT file system:
Create a file with an illegal name and store all information in that file.
You do still have to crete an extra file, but only one (or one for each dir).

Thanks for all the advice. The methods you have described probably
work fine normally. However, my problem was that when I downloaded
stuff in a UNIX environment, all files were given the file info
(UNIX,TEXT) in Executor. All I had to do was change the file info to
(????,????), and everything decompressed as it should.

Subject: Re: Mac-formatted Zip disks in Parallel-Port Drive

Sorry to respond to my own post, but wanted to thank the Executor community 
for the help.  In case anyone was wondering, Beta1 can read Mac-format Zip 
disks on parallel-port drives under DOS and Win95 (that is, using the DOS 
or Win95 Zip drivers) but 1.99q12 can only read them under Win95, not under 
the DOS guest.exe driver.  Go figure.  Using the -macdrives flag speeds 
things up, but produces no different result.  Thanks to ARDI for again 
making my life better and easier.
