Greetings, ST-ites;

	I am a non-ST person with a question. I have heard that ST disks
are compatible with MSDOS disks, and I thought I would make sure of that
before trying to send some GIF pics to my friend in New York who owns an
ST. Can I write GIF files to 720K 3.5" floppies and have him read them 
with no problems? WHat considerations should I make? I might also ftp a
viewer for him, (he has not Internet connection) do executable need 
special attention?
