- HeidiTools is a collection of file format conversion utilities for Mac
- users who exchange data with users of MS-D*S and Un*x-based computers.
-
- There are many good freeware utilities that handle such conversions, but
- finding them and learning how to make them work is seldom obvious.
-
- HeidiTools provides a convenient front-end for these tools, with on-line
- help to explain the basics. Most of the utilities invoked by HeidiTools are
- freeware; all are available from on-line services and users groups.
-
- In addition to the sub-launching utilities, the stack includes a
- D*S <-> Un*x <-> Mac line endings translator, a utility that sets
- the creator code for text files, and Stuff and UnStuff buttons
- which make use of the StuffIt XCMDs and the StuffIt Engine (TM),
- (part of the StuffIt Deluxe (TM) package). These utilities work in
- single file or batch mode.
-

- stack is freeware; feel free to customize it for your own use, but please
- don't redistribute modified stacks with the HeidiTools icons and Biscuit
