I can expound on this for a bit.
BasiliskII has a feature called "My Computer" where it will allow you to
make any drive letter you have access to in Windows accessable through MacOS
by adding a special "My Computer" folder to the Desktop. I don't have time
to take screenshots right now, but it's cool. I use it all the time as
well - although sometimes I find that Basilisk's type/creator settings
aren't quite right. I could probably reconfigure Basilisk, but I usually
just fall back on HFVExplorer, a freeware app that lets you read/write to
Mac HFS partitions.
If you're looking for BasiliskII or HFVExplorer, search Google:

Subject: Re: [NTLK] Newton talking to a PC
I have been trying to get the DIL to work, but for
some reason, I can't get the Newt to recognize my
Windows IP...I'm still trying though...
But, the easiest way I've found to send data to the
Newt from a Windows machine is by using Basilisk. In
Basilisk, set up the "C:" drive as another drive on
your Mac desktop and you can access anything on your
PC through your emulated Mac OS. Then you can send
stuff to your Newt. I've only done this twice, so I'm
not too familiar with the details.
