[net.micro.mac] Translating BinHex files

clarke@h-sc2.UUCP (clarke) (05/23/86)

Does anyone know how to or have a program to translate a BinHexed MacWrite file
into a text file on a Vax?  I'm trying to read the Mac Technical notes archived
at Sumex, but don't have access to a Mac with a modem so I can't BinHex them
on the Mac.
I've tried "UNIX-FROMHEX.C" which is a C program archived at Sumex, but it
returns "bad checksum" everytime and is making a file that isn't close to 
text.
Hopefully someone has Subject: Translating BinHex files

Hopefully someone has already met and conquered this problem and will be able
to help me?
