[comp.sys.mac] ?s on Mac2 term progs, .hcx files, Postscript dumper

I've got three questions:

1. What terminal software's display window automatically expands to fill the
   whole Mac II screen (with Apple color monitor) and uses a larger font
   size so that it's 80 columns across in bigger letters?  Do any of the 
   popular ones that do good vt100 do this too?

2. BinHex 4.0 converts .hqx files.  BinHex 5.0 converts .bin files.  PackIt
   converts .pit files, and StuffIt converts .sit files.  What converts
   .hcx files to usable format?

3. Is there a Mac program that will take a generic Postscript file (i.e.
   one not necessarily created by a Mac program) and send it to the LaserWriter
   to be printed?

In the event that any of this has been covered before, usual disclaimers
apply.  :-)

Please email all responses.

Widgets, which comes with DiskTop, will do this.
