As I said, I don't believe that a PC is necessary. I'm think there's
a Mac program available, but for various reasons I preferred to use
the DOS app, and I just posted the first link I could find. The
criteria not to use a PC was not specified in the previous request
for information.

As I said, not _all_ Mac users are ignorant or incapable.
