I just snagged Davex from Apple2-L, and it's an exec. I DL'd it to my Sun
before I realized it (thought it was binsciied (sp)), but I tossed it to my
GS as well. Anyway, I can't seem to do much with it with the control-J's
(linefeeds, I guess). I tried AppleWorks, but it sat there for ten minutes
on the first one and I gave up. I tried AppleWorks GS on a composite file
(I catted 'em all together before I knew it was an exec, so that particular
file was 250 some odd K) but it just sat there as well. I tried that nifty
Fixer program of Morgan Davis', but it just removes LF's, doesn't replace
then with CR's. I tried ProTERM, and it did it, albeit very slowly, but
several of the files are too big to fit in the ProTerm editor, and it's
sooo sloow I hate to use it anyway. Are there any Apple-II or Unix utils
I can use to do this for me?
Thanks,
Mike
P.S. As an alternative, could someone send me the latest Davex, shrunk and
binsciied?

Don't worry about the linefeeds. As has been stated a million times in the past week, BinSCII can handle linefeeds with no problem. Maybe this small factoid should be added to the FAQ...

No biggie here, but I'm pretty sure I _did_ mention these were execs and not binscii files. I know BinSCII can handle them.
