After stripping the message header from things I download from the net I
can convert the file OK with BinHex, but the file type and creator always
come out as 'SIT!'. I am using BinHex 4.0 (the About box says it was
written in '85 though). It's been a few years since I've downloaded
anything, so I don't know if I'm forgetting something or if I've got
a bad version of BinHex. I do, however, know that this is the same version
of BinHex that I used to use successfully.
If anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong I'd really appreciate it.
I doubt that anyone else is having this kind of trouble, so please respond
directly.
