i am trying to help my daughter, who has a mac, and who connects to a
unix machine at her location, to get a sensible communication system
working between them she has white knight, but has trouble getting it
to get files. i picked up mackermit from the umich archive and put it
on her unix machine, which i can reach via ftp. but it comes as a .hqx
file. where can i find the correct program to convert it to a usable
file?
