Newsgroups: alt.cd-rom.reviews Subject: ISO9660 with Ascii files?? Date: 11 Jun 94 16:27:11 GMT Organization: University of Washington Lines: 28 Message-ID: NNTP-Posting-Host: glia.biostr.washington.edu I have an Amiga and a CD-ROM drive. I have seen a lot of interesting CD-ROM collections out there, but I don't know if they have ascii text files or not. I am interested in encyclopedias, quotations, literature, etc, but most of what I have found along those lines have their files in a format that is only usable by either a MAC or a PC. (yes, I know, I can load them into my PC emulator and run from there, but that defeats the purpose of having things on a CD-ROM. I would much rather use my Amiga.) Could someone please post a listing of stuff that they have found that either WILL work on an Amiga (because they have used files from it on an Amiga) or that has a lot of ASCII text (or perhaps WordPerfect formatted files) that would make purchase of the disk worthwhile? Thank you!! Crystal Crystal ZZZ
