When you do copy the files to a 3.5" disk, you can set up
subdirectories that can be named each disk. This is actually the
better solution--ProDOS is limited to 52, 54 or 55 files (I forget
which) files or names in the main directory, but each subdirectory can
have up to 255 files each.
These can be done with utility programs like the ProDOS user's disk
from Apple, or Copy ][+.
If you have a bunch of DOS 3.3 disks, don't forget about programs like
Richard Bennett's OzDOS which lets you set up 2 400k partitions on an
800k 3.5" disk, and will format and run like DOS 3.3. (OzDOS can be
found on the Trenco ftp site: ftp.gno.org)

Yes, I understand that but source disk has to be prodos formatted as
well - is that right ?
