- The people who run Sumex-aim anticipated that people might not already have
- something to unpack a binhex file. Binhex 4.0 is available in MACBINARY
- format rather than binhex, so that you can download that and use it for
- unpacking everything else. It is located in Mac-info/utils and is named
- binhex4.bin. Be sure you download it in MacBinary format rather than
- binary or text.
