[users discuss the pain of deleting header material from combined binhex files]

I keep it pretty simple. I save the binary files to the root directory,
appending them one after the other. Then I download them via Text Xmodem
(or Text Kermit). Open the file with QUED. Use the "Find" routine to find
any string in the headers such as "Subject:." It instantly goes to it, and
a quick select-backspace yanks it out. "Find Next" gets you to the rest of
them just as easily. One could delete half a dozen headers in less time than
it took to type this paragraph.
