OK, here's the deal. I used MacAttack II to convert a geoPaint file to Macpaint
format, uploaded it to a mainframe with Kermit in binary mode, then used binary
FTP to download it to a Mac. When I converted the file with BinHex, BinHex gave
me an end of file error,so I extended the file a bit with a word processor.
BinHex read it OK but the resulting file was slightly scrambled: it had all the
data was there, but sections of the picture were shifted right and left.

Can anyone tell me if this sounds like a problem with the transfer, or with
MacAttack? Has anyone used MacAttack successfully to move geoPaint files to the
Mac?
