Header: Instant Pascal: Transferring files to and from Apple II Pascal

 To transfer source code files from Instant Pascal (IP) to Apple II Pascal, you
 can make use of AppleWorks to massage the IP file type. Follow these steps:

  1. Boot AppleWorks and load the IP source file into the word processor as
 "an
     ASCII file from disk."
  2. Still using AppleWorks, print the file back to disk as an ASCII file.
  3. Boot System Utilities 2.1 and copy the "printed" file from the ProDOS
 disk
     to an Apple II Pascal disk.

 To transfer source code from Apple II Pascal to Instant Pascal, follow these
 steps:

  1. Boot System Utilities 2.1.

  2. Put the Apple II Pascal disk in one drive.

  3. Put a ProDOS formatted disk in a second drive.

  4. Select the Copy Files option from the System Utilities menu and copy the
     source code files from the Pascal disk to the ProDOS disk.

     -- Note that System Utilities 2.1 supports file copying between two
        differently formatted disks.

  5. The source file on the ProDOS disk will be recognized by Instant Pascal
 as
     a "Text" file, but you can open it into the Program window. If you save
     the file under Instant Pascal, it becomes an "IP" type file.
