- PC BinHex 1.3 University of Minnesota 1992-1993
-
- Overview:
-
- This Utility encodes binary files into a plain text format and
- decodes the resulting files into their original state. The
- encoding method used is called BinHex. This encoding method
- works on any type of file, including formatted word processing
- and spreadsheet files, graphics files, and even executable
- files (i.e. programs or applications). The encoded file can
- also be passed from computer to computer in its encoded form.
- The encoding will remain intact and it will be equally
- meaningless on all the machines until it is unencoded. To be
- usable or readable it must be converted back to its original
- format and be run on a compatible computer. This program is
- compatible with the Macintosh version of BINHEX and with
- POPMail (tm).
