Apple Lisa Workshop 3.x C compiler disks

I am looking for these, as I would like to port a package to Lisa OS 'office'

Does anyone see references to these on their legacy cd's or developer cd's?

I am eager and desparate to find these to continue my hacking :)

Could everyone please look?

Or does anyone know where a copy may be?

The lisa list is more oreinted towards collecting, not retro programing.

Thx, Daniel.

 
Here's the Lisa Workshop folder off the Legacy CD. From what I can gather the C compiler was part of Workshop, but I can't mount these disks to look. It has a few more disks than the usual 9-disk set that can be found elsewhere online.
 
Thanx ! yeah i'm having problems mounting and converting those images too, I think it may be something to do with running diskcopy 6x under classic.

 
yeah? its a ndis (sp) image and apple support site says that ndis is a diskcopy 6.1+ format..

does dc4.2 do ndis write only images?

 
The images are DiskCopy (type:rohd, creator:ddsk). The reason you'll need 4.2 is because 6.3 requires System 7.0.1 or higher, which is unable to mount the old 400k (MFS) disks.

If you scroll down to the end of this page there's a link to a project that adds native read-only MFS support to Tiger. Might be worth a try!

Diskcopy 4.2 under vmac/6.0.8 wont recognise them. As apples support pages say, ndi(x) images are created by diskcopy 6.1. iirc thats ppc so i guess i need system 7 on a ppc mac emulator that will do disk images to extract these images to files. phew! what a mouthful. and a contortion!

 
i dont want to mount them, but diskcopy 6.1 chokes and comlains it cant go on anylonger when i try to convert _or mount_ them. to a dc4.2 image that lisa em uses. in fact any format i try to convert to it chokes.

Dart doesnt seem to help either.

 
Thx! im working on it.

OT: is there a fat fs for osx 10.3.9? the std one only reads while i wanna write.
