Subject:CD-ROM Help Needed From:Nancy Hoft <itech -at- MV -dot- MV -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 12 Jun 1995 13:37:49 -0400
I'm in the midst of a project that will deliver a CD-ROM along with
printed material. The CD-ROM will contain text files, graphics files, and
executables. We want to deliver a single CD-ROM to address UNIX,
Macintosh, and Windows users, and not 3 platform-specific CD-ROMs.
We envision a CD-ROm with three platform-specific "tracks", so to speak. The
files would come in 3 flavors (mac, windows, unix).
Anyone have any experience with this? I profess complete ignorance, so
any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I'd look it up in my
telephone book, but CD-ROM just isn't a listing yet.:)
