I have a problem with Stuffit 1.40A. I unbinhexed all the utilities and documents and all went fine with no errors or warnings. I have not used it to unarchive a Stuffit 1.31 document but unstuffit 1.40 did it successfuly. My problem is the following... I use Stuffit regularly to Decode Binhex files downloaded from NEWS. I had no problems with Stuffit 1.31, but Stuffit 1.40A said that it was having disk problems (-39), and it could not decode the binhex file. I used Binhex 5.0 to decode the binhex file, no problems... I used Stuffit 1.31 to decode the binhex file, no problems... I used Stuffit 1.40A to decode the binhex file, no way... Ironically, I am using the binhex file for Stuffit 1.40A as the testing document, but it does not matter what file I try to decode from binhex, Binhex 5.0 and Stuffit 1.31 will decode them, but Stuffit 1.40A won't. I assume that there is something wrong with the application itself, but could someone else try it and see if this is true. I can only assume that the binhex file for Stuffit 1.40A is not corrupted since it was decoded without a word of complaint. Hope to hear from you.
