Hello people.  I was looking around one of the FTP sites on that list that
was posted last week, and I encountered a number of files with the suffix
.sit_bin.  Now those are obviously StiffIt files, but from the _bin on the
end, I assume they've been put through something else for the purpose of
uploading (something on the order of binhex's .hqx perhaps?)

Anyway, I ftp'd them over, and downloaded them from the mainframe w/MacKermit.
Now I hit a problem.  I couldn't figure out what to do to decode the files.
They weren't traditional .hqx binhex files, as the "decode binhex" option of
stuffit failed (it wasn't even in the normal binhex form anyway).  I tried
putting it through binhex 5.0, and it was able to make a StuffIt file out
of it.  However, every attempt to extract the files from the archive results
in CRC errors w/corrupted files, or with the screen filling up with vertical
lines and promptly resetting.

Any advice on how I can get at these files?
