Yet another version of "unix-xbin.shar" has been posted to <info-mac> and to net.sources.mac. The first one had an embarrassing number of problems, including misspelling the USG routine strrchr (without the trailing 'r'), forgetting to close files, and not resetting eof when trying to read the second .hqx file in a row. My apologies for any inconvenience, especially to anyone who might have run into these bugs. As usual, please continue to report any problems, suggestions, or improvements to me.

If you're trying to download the banana system, you must download the DeskTop .hqx file and binhex it on a fresh disk with standard System and Finder as instructed in Info-Mac V2 #21; then after booting another disk and removing the standard System and Finder, the other three files can be run through xbin and downloaded via MacTerminal. If you download the binary DeskTop, MacTerminal will call it "DeskTop (Via MacTerminal)" rather than replacing the existing DeskTop, which doesn't work with the new System and Finder.
