Apple is pleased to announce the availability of a new utility for use with Macintosh Application Environment, `asdtool'.
asdtool converts AppleSingle file format to AppleDouble and vice-versa. It can optionally translate carriage returns to linefeeds and handle double-byte characters, such as Kanji. asdtool determines the file format and, following conversion, adds a suffix of _sgl or _sbl as appropriate. For complete information, please read the man page supplied in the tar distribution.
asdtool is covered under the `APPLE SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT' which is supplied with MAE.
asdtool and other utilities are available from `support.apple.com' using FTP. The asdtool can be found in the directory /pub/mae/utilities. For more information, please see the README contained in the same directory.
