There is also a very nice utility called (I think) resmgr that could convert
files between Resource Sharing and MPE (both directions). It could
take commands from a script or be executed from a job, so could be used
to automate converting files from MPE to the PC (resource sharing).
 
Resource sharing was updated to work with the more recent Lan Manager
(and I think Win95) tcp/ip software, but I'm not sure of the details since
we left it behind and moved to a real Netware server (for performance
reasons).
