All RIGHT!!! Got a new toy! A Mac II with all sorts of memory, hard disk,
all that kinda thing..... and NO software! (OK, I lied.... it DOES have a
little software, but *none* of the stuff you REALLY need... like term
programs, and cool little DA's like... uh... don't KNOW like what! ;-) )

Right now, we have a program called MacKermit, which we can use to talk
to the VAXen in our building, as well as TALKing to the world outside.
I guess that what I'm trying to do is find out what the best/easiest
shareware (or pd) term program for the MAC II is. Any assistance would be
greatly appreciated!

On a related note: I notice that the binaries here all require a program
called 'binhex' to convert them from message to binary format. Where can
binhex be obtained? As is probably clear, we are pretty much novices at this
MAC II stuff, and need all the help we can get! Thanks.......
