>2) I just tried to get some giles from sumex-aim.stanford.edu,
and colorpics-part1.hqx (as well as parts 2 and 3) do not un-
bin hex properly!  One gives out an end of file error, and the
other two give "end of checksum" errors (as well as showing
seemingly random file types as opposed to the SIT file type).

You have to concatenate the different parts into one file, so your
binhqx program can convert the file properly. You can do this with a
word processor, like MS Word, (just make sure you save it as a TEXT
file) or use a program. There are many programs to do this, Unity 3.1.1
does this, just to name one.  Another alternative is to do it on an
Andrew workstation using either bhcom or mcvert, however, using the Mac
is probably easier.
