To elaborate on this a little, there is no way to insert fargo into a 92.b
on a macintosh at this time. If you have access to a dos box, just get
FARGOB12.ZIP, unzip it to a 1.44 mb floppy on the mac, use mac graph-link
to make a backup, and save it in the fargo folder on the floppy. Then go
to a DOS box, cd a:\FARGOB12, and type putfargo <backup file -.92b>, it'll
do its magic (hopefully w/o complaining), and return to the dos prompt.
Then go back to the mac, send the new backup, and the .92p's. I did it
this morning, works like a charm.
