[net.micro.mac] How does BinHex Work????

tynor@gitpyr.UUCP (Steve Tynor) (02/11/85)

     This is a general call for help concerning BinHex.  It doesn't
   seem to work for me.
     Here is my situation:
   As a relatively new Mac owner I missed all the news concerning
   BinHex.  I finally found a copy, but no one can tell me how it
   works.  
     I have transferred hex files using MacTerminal and a MacForth
   terminal program, but BinHex chews up the files and spits out
   garbage.  (Actually, it spits out 0 length applications, which
   don't run very well).
     I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can give.  There
   must be something incredibly simple that I am overlooking.

   Thanks in advance,
