Hello.

I wonder if there's a 'dd' (disk dumper) utility for MacOSX command line? If I were to hook up an external 3.5" disk drive, I could use 'dd' to get the contents of the disk?

Secondly, I do a lot of work with PostScript II files. Can MacOSX view them natively? Convert them to a PDF format? This functionality would be similar to GhostView/GhostScript for Linux/Windows.

Thanks,
Todd Elliott

1.) Of course we have /bin/dd. What self-respecting Unix wouldn't?

2.) I'm sure there's something that can accomodate you. Google is your friend.
