Would be grateful for help on how to download a BinHex file to the
Mac. I do it with MacTerminal and then BinHex it, but usually I get
a CRC error (bit-faults on the way probably), and the rest of the times
I get a "document" type file, not an application. What's "PackIt"?
Does it do the job better?
     
                        "sniff,...where did we wrong?"
     
Thanks,
