You have several methods.
- command line with SetFile if you have the developer tools installed.
- general purpose utilities like FileBuddy
- Michael Vacìk's Packager, the OS X equivalent of PackType.
http://www.metastasis.net/mici/pkgs/pkger_e.html
- use a smart tool like Escale that automatically detects if a
package is a Newton package (same technology is to be found in
Packager v2.0).
I know and I confirm there are TCP/IP issues with Escale when the
Newton connects to the Internet through the Mac (I'll solve it later
when I'll be able to grasp the time to do it), but AppleTalk should
work unless you've got an Airport Extreme base station.
