I tried to get some Mac fonts for conversion to Amiga fonts the other day, but they are packed using either binhex or stuffit on the Mac. Is there a compatible unpacker on the Amiga ? an FTP address and file name would be much appreciated. Regards, Gary (Amiga User Group of Western Australia)

I know of no such utility for the Amiga; Do you have access to a Mac or an Amiga running A-Max? If so, all you need to do is run the files through Stuffit 1.5.1 or newer to first decode the BinHex files and then unStuff them. But I think this must be done on Mac; I've never seen a program for ANY computer besides Mac that would do either of these steps.

Argh... here goes again.. There's an archive in ab20.larc.nasa.gov called /incoming/amiga/UUJoin101.lzh which contains a little program called xbin. This is the program you want, it decodes .hqx files. Has anobody found a un-.sit-er program?? Gustavo -- | From Mexico!

Yes, I have an un-Stuffit program. I haven't looked at it for a long time because I don't have an un-Binhex program. If it's not too long, I could mail it to you. -- * From the disk of: | jms@vanth.uucp | "There's UFOs over New Jim Shaffer, Jr. | amix.commodore.com!vanth!jms | York, and I ain't too 37 Brook Street | uunet!cbmvax!amix!vanth!jms | surprised."

There is a unix program called mcvert (or something like that) that will un-binhex files. I don't have it but it was mentioned in the Frequently Asked Questions posting in the mac groups. -- Jimmy Liberato liberato@dri.com ...uunet!drivax!liberato

I was able to uncompress, unshar, and "make" it work on my Sun account, and I'm not very Unix-savvy.
