Jay - the BinHex part is working fine for you. What you'ver got after
un-BinHexing is a "StuffIt" file. StuffIt files are compressed versions of
the original files, and may also contain several files - a program and
accompanying docs, ferinstance. You need to get the program "StuffIt" from
a user group, fellow mac user, or almost any online service. America Online
comes with StuffIt, dunno about the others. You can then open the SIT! files
and "unstuff" them. The resulting files will then be usable normally.

Good luck, -Russ
