User`s guide
Actually, GEOS is ProDOS compatible, at least in the sense that Catalyst,
MouseDesk, and Apple II Desktop are. GEOS can act as a program launcher for
ProDOS programs. Obviously, for GEOS programs, GEOS acts like the full OS (much
like GS/OS on the IIGS and MacOS on the Mac, actually), but it can do everything
MouseDesk can do in regards to launching ProDOS programs. On the GEOS desktop,
the files show up as icons stamped with "ProDOS; and, the user can copy and
delete ProDOS files.
One neat thing about GEOS is the ability to expand the root directory past
the 51 file limit on a ProDOS disk. If you have a bunch of stuff converted from
DOS 3.3 to ProDOS you may find that things don't fit on the root directory of
the ProDOS disk. Using GEOS, you can copy all the files to the root directory.
