There exist a set of UNIX(R) based tools to perform: 1) multi-part binhex file combining ->"bhcomb" (I actually wrote this one myself!) 2) binhex to macbinary (and its flavors) conversion ->"xbin" 3) macbinary (and its flavors) downloads to the Mac via "MacTerminal 1.1 Mode" ("Mac XModem" for Versaterm users) -> "macput" (and, of course, "macget") 4) unsit, for those who want to use it -> "unsit" *********************************************************************** *I posted the set in my possession to comp.sources.mac a year or two ago, but *they never appeared.

They are not necessarily better in all respects than those commonly available. The changes may have possibly introduced some bugs. Email to individuals would be a real pain, as the compressed, cpio'ed files are quite a bit larger than mailers typically handle without barfing (or have things changed recently?).
