You can get the file Binhex 4.0 or Binhex 5.0 from rascal.ics.utexas.edu
without decoding. First, get the following files from mac/communications
        Binhex_4.0_bin
        Binhex_5.0_bin
with binary mode and download the files with binary mode.
Now you have the file Binhex 4.0 or Binhex 5.0.

If you have problems, read the info files
          00.about.binary-files
          00.about.compressed-files
          00.problem.with.binaries
in mac directory.

Good luck!!!    s j moon
