Sounds obtained with the SID software is stored in the MACE format (Macintosh
Audio Compression Expansion) according to the documentation. I wonder if 
someone is familiar with this format. I have a couple of questions:

1.	APDA has a package on MACE (like on anything else). 
	Is it (or part of it) available through ftp?

2.	How can such sound files be converted into SND files?

3.	How can they be converted into ASCII with numbers proportional
	to the (uncompressed) sound amplitude level?

Any ideas/opinions will be greatly appreciated.
