I have downloaded some software to a NeXT from sumex, converted it into Macbinary format using some UNIX utilities, and written the files to a DOS floppy. But I cannot get the Mac to recognize the files as Macbinaries when I transfer them from the DOS floppy to my Mac HD using binary transfer with the Apple File Exchange. Is there a Macbinary "translator" for AFE, or other way of getting the Mac to recognize the three forks of these files? Tim Van Zandt tvz@princeton.edu
