- What version of Executor do you have? I believe 1.99j was unable to
- access files on your DOS hard drive, but that was fixed in 1.99k. You
- should be able to unbinhex something on your DOS drive with 1.99k.
- You could also copy the file to a Mac volume with HFS_Xfer.
-
- Maelstrom is fun, although the colors are "dark" under Executor.
-
- Note: most bug reports we see neglect to mention which version of
- Executor demonstrates the problem. Please include this information!
