Howdy Mac World.  I am not a subscriber to this Newsgroup but would like
some information.  I am working ona software project with a group in
Guam and would like to find a way to mail binary stuff to them.  I am
using a Sun/UNIX system and they are using Mac II's.  

Are there Mac versions of software such as uuencode, uudecode, shar, and
tar?  I knothat Mac's have something called BinHex but I dont know if
that tool allows multiple files and things like that.  Another thing that
would be nice is compress and uncompress to use before the uuencode.

Can anyone help with this?  An ftp location and what to get would be nice.

Remember,  I am not a subscriber so send your help directely to my mail
address.
