[comp.sys.mac.apps] encode and decode of BinHex4 files

Z.Wang@cs.ucl.ac.uk (Zheng Wang) (11/20/90)

Dear all,

Does anyone over there know a public domain package for
encoding and decoding of BinHex4 file?

Does anyone know where I can find the specification of BinHex4?

Thank you very much

Zheng

Look at sumex in info-mac/util for the file binhex-40.hqx
On the other hand, Stuffit will happily de/encode Binhex for you..

Hope this helps
