Utilities for accessing Apple's HFS volumes

HFS is the "Hierarchical File System" used on modern Macintosh computers. With this package, you can read and write Macintosh-formatted media such as floppy disks, CD-ROMs, and SCSI hard disks on most Unix platforms. You can also format raw media or file into an HFS volume. This package contains a number of different tools: - Several command-line programs (hmount, hls, hcopy, et al.) - Tk-based front-end for browsing and copying files through a variety of transfer modes (MacBinary, BinHex, text, etc.) - Tcl package and interface for scriptable access to volumes - C library for low-level access to volumes Support for Apple's new Extended Format (HFS+) is currently not available.
