I've just got myself a Lisa/MacWorks, alias Macintosh-XL. I'm sure there are others who only got Macintoshes recently too. Can someone post an explanation of the procedures to be followed in using these applications distributed in BinHex format on the net? I have MacTerminal so I can get text out of the unix system into the mac, though I wouldn't trust the dial-up line to be noise-free! How does one get boots-trapped into being able to load programs etc? Julian Davies (PS, I just grabbed the xbin program, but what else is needed? I kind of suspect that I should be getting a program on a diskette from someone else who already has it. BTW, I've been quoted a price for the 'Software Supplement', but Apple people aren't telling me what's in it. Could someone summarize please?)
