This disc is prepared in ISO-9660 format with Rock Ridge Extensions.
On UNIX(tm) systems that support these extensions the full mixed case
directory and filenames will be available. On other systems, a
translation table is available in each directory that shows the
original long mixed case name and the ISO-9660 conforming name. There
are utilities in the directory "ym_utils" (cd_link & cd_copy) that can
be compiled on UNIX(tm) systems to allow files to be either copied
from the CD or symbolically linked with their original long names.
DOS users are left to contend with the ISO-9660 conforming names.
Some DOS utilities for manipulating UNIX(tm) files are provided in the
DOSTOOLS directory. Each tools is unzipped in its own directory:
UNSHAR Unpack UNIX(tm) shar files (Shell Archives).
UUDOALL Uuencode/uudecode
EXTAR10 "Tape Archive" manipulator for .tar files.
CRLF15B Convert between UNIX(tm) newline terminated files and
DOS format CRLF terminated lines.
