[net.micro.mac] xbin->macbinary source

dorner@uiucuxc.CSO.UIUC.EDU (10/14/86)

Some time ago, someone said they were posting a program to convert files
from xbin output format (.data,.rsrc,.info) to macbinary.  Our notes
software died for a day or two about that time, and I never saw the
program.  Could someone who actually has this mail me the source?

Thanks.

Well I just finished a change to macbin.c, to allow easier multi-file
actions. The README:

+---------------
| A new version of Unix macbin.
| 
| Changes:
| 
| 	'% macbin *' will convert all *.{info,data,rsrc} trios in the
| 	current directory to basename.bin.
| 
| 	'% macbin foo fee fum' will attempt to convert foo.{data,rsrc,info},
| 	fee.{data,rsrc,info}, and fum.{data,info,rsrc}.
| 
| 	'% macbin -v <whatever>' will be a little noisier about it.
+---------------

I attempted to post it to mod.mac.sources, with no luck. I will now post
it to net.sources.mac.
