HFS/2 version 0.10 has been released.
What is HFS/2
=============
HFS/2 is a program which lets OS/2 users read and write files on media
formatted with the Hierarchical File System used on Macintosh computers.
This program is in an early, experimental stage, and may still have many bugs
and problems.
HFS/2 currently works with 1.44MB diskettes and CD-ROMs.
Where to get it
===============
HFS/2 is free software, and is available from
http://www.student.nada.kth.se/~f96-bet/HFS
Major changes in version 0.10
=============================
* HFS/2 now uses Robert Leslie's HFS implementation, and is covered
by the GNU General Public License.
* HFS/2 can now format 1.44MB diskettes.
* It is no longer necessary to run SYNC before removing diskettes.
* Fixed a problem with the filter driver that interfered with removable
disk drives such as Zip drives.
