make sure that you are stripping the "---end of part # ---" from the end of each
part.  This really bugged me  until I just tried random stuff and found this
regular text at the
end of the files that had been separated on comp.binaries.mac.
Binhex ignores the last one of these if you are only dealing with
one file because it has it's own flag for the end of the file (":").
So all you have to do is remember to strip all of the headers and those nasty
"--- end of part # ---" that the moderator for the binaries board puts on
the end of those files, then append the files to together in the correct order
and
unbinhex the thing.
