[Blindapple] placing files in a disk image

[Jayson Smith]

Hi,

You should be able to open the disk image, then Action menu, Add Files. 
It'll prompt for the location. If it's a ProDOS volume I think you can 
choose the directory where the file goes, if DOS 3.3 there are no 
folders. Once you've hit OK on that if it comes up, a standard file open 
dialog will pop up. Select the file or files you want, and open them, 
and they'll be added to the disk. Then, for each file, you'll most 
likely need to go Actions, Edit Attributes, in order to change the file 
type. Text files, at least, under ProDOS get assigned a NON filetype, 
which needs to be changed to TXT.

Hope this helps,

Jayson
