[comp.sys.sgi] Transfering TIFF/PICT output to a Mac drawing program

stearns@mbcl.rutgers.edu (02/28/91)

I'd like to know how to get a TIFF or PICT file encoded and transfered from 
an SGI to a Macintosh and displayed in a handy drawing program, such as Canvas. 
Is there a binhex.c for the SGI around, or a uudecode for the Mac? Or would
another approach be better?

I have found several programs on the net which convert *.hqx
files to several different file formats used for representing the 3 part
Macintosh files on a unix file system.  Also, there is a PD uu(en/de)code
for the Mac, which I've used before.
  If you'd like, I can mail them all to you.  There is alot of traffic on this
news-group regarding the conversion of this to that file format, so even
though I can't help you with that part of your project, I'm sure that either
someone else will, or that you can find the answer by downloading the
recent proceedings of this group from vgr.brl.mil.
