Summary: there is a program with which to change the type of all files on disk


I know that Darin Adler wrote a program RANGER with which you could change the
type of selected (all?) files of a certain type to another - and, I believe,
I had uploaded it at some time and that should make it availabe at the
SUMEX, SIMTEL20 and many other archives. Darin wrote that program to change the
type of MacPaint-docs to SuperPaint (or was it FullPaint?) - and that it
worked for other types also.

I also remember a second, slightly different program that was even more
powerful (or was it the other way around?) - but can't remember the name ...
