For BinHex to see your files, they must be of type 'TEXT'.
You must make sure to have AFE convert from MS-DOS text to Mac text
(that will eliminate the linefeeds).  Then if your files are not
of type 'TEXT', change them using ResEdit, DiskTop, McSink, or other
handy utility.  It's also a good idea to open the files in a text editor
and eliminate the description at the begining, and any non-hex data
at the end.  The actual hex dump should begin and end with a colon.
