	The only new FST on System 5.0 is the AppleShare FST.

	Are you using MPW for your work, because if you aren't, there is
	a tool in the MPW IIGS Cross Development Package called 
	DuplicateIIGS, which copies a file to a ProDOS disk for you.
	(If you already know this, then maybe somebody else out there
	can use the information...)
