You might use the Asimov program (http://www.ninjaforce.com/html/
products.html) once you get a (un)shrinker working.  That'll allow you
to take whole-disk images like .po and .2mg and reconstitute physical
disks from the image.

Maybe.  It's a fiddly business, those filetypes.  Especially when
transferring between Mac and GS using finder or mac-produced ProDOS
diskettes.  You can BRUN tchange directly on the GS if you can get its
filetype changed to $06 (BIN); you can use the instructions you
already read if its filetype is $04 (TXT).  It sounds like the
filetype is now $00 (UNK).  A quick CAT will tell you what type the GS
thinks it is.  You can use this command to load it, based on the type
it is:
BLOAD TCHANGE.BIN,A2048,T$00
