- This version of "xbin" can handle all three BinHex formats
- (so far). Thanks to Darin Adler at TMQ Software for providing
- the code to compute and check the CRC values for all three formats.
-
- Other new features include "list" and "verbose" modes, the
- ability to convert several binhex files at one time, the ability
- to read standard input, somewhat better error handling, and a
- manual page.
-
- Any extraneous mail or news headers are ignored, but xbin relies
- on finding a line which starts with "(This file" to know when
- the header ends and the good stuff begins. You can add one
- of these by hand if it's been lost.
-
- To compile it on USG systems, type:
- cc -o xbin xbin.c
-
- or on Berkeley systems:
- cc -o xbin xbin.c -DBSD
-
- As usual, please report any problems, suggestions, or
- improvements to me.
