They could've been labled 'WPWorks1.FRED', 'WPWorks2.JOE', etc, it wouldn't have made any difference to Disk Copy as long as the Creator & File Types were correct. That is, DiskDup+ creates and names images with a suffix '.image' by default, same as Disk Copy 4.2, so the person creating those image files, had named them '.dsk' manually. dsk files are extracted as locked, and have the Creator Type 'DDp+' and File Type 'DDim' - being DiskDup+ or DiskDup Pro disk image files.Īlso, its not so much that Disk Copy 6.3 can mount '.dsk' files here, its more the case that Disk Copy could mount them because their Creator & File Types were recognisable as being of a disk-image file type that Disk Copy can use. OTOH, MacZip correctly extracts this archive and the. Perhaps later versions of Stuffit fare better with extracting zip, but I don't trust it on a Classic system, with zip archives containing Mac files. dsk files all extracted as, File Type 'TEXT' and are unlocked by Stuffit.
In all cases, Stuffit Expander extracts the contents of this file incorrectly. By MikeTomTom - 2011, June 2 - I've since tested extracting this zip file with Stuffit Expander 5.5 on OS 9.2.2, both to an HFS+ drive and a FAT32 thumb drive, and also under Mac OS 7.1.1 on an HFS drive.
