  I have a problem that I hope someone can help me with.  I recently came
across a file for the macintosh that I was interested in looking at.  The
file had appended onto the end of it's name: .sit.hqx.crypt

  Now, I understand hqx, BinHex, and how do dissolve it.  The same case
with sit, but what I don't know, is what the .crypt means?  Is it a Mac
program?  Is it some UNIX encryption?  If anyone here has any information,
or even a good idea, I'd be VERY glad to hear it.  Thanks...

                                           - Chris
