NTLK HOW Making NCU recognize packages

Hi!

I recently got a Longshine Ethernet card to connect my MP2100 to my Rev. B
iMac, which is much more comfortable than installing packages via IR and
having no way to backup the Newton. I use NCU for installing packages, but
unfortunately, some programs attached their "tags" to some packages (i.e.,
some packages appear as Netscape documents, Simpletext documents and so
on). NCU won´t recognize them. Maybe this is a dumb question, but I guess I
have to change the type of those files. Could anybody tell me how I can
accomplish this? I use MacOS 8.6, and I know that the packages are not
damaged (I installed some of them via IR, and they work).
Thanks!

Best regards
Till Kortüm
