Macintosh Utilites
Feb. 1989
("README.DOC" added 2/9/89 by Spencer Yeh for BIONET distribution)


INTRODUCTION

This directory contains a number of public-domain utility macintosh programs.

All of the ".hqx" files have been compressed with StuffIt 1.5.1 and then 
converted to hex format using BinHex 4.0.  


SYSTEMS SUPPORTED

Mac Plus, SE, and Macintosh II.


PROGRAM FILES

This diskette contains the following files:

README.DOC            This documentation file
Macify.hqx            Helps convert ASCII text files to Macintosh text format.
MacIP.hqx             A program from Stanford which allows a networked 
                      Macintosh to become an Internet node for TELNET and FTP
MicroEmac.hqx         A version of the EMACS editor for Macintoshes.
Setfile.hqx           Allows Macintosh file characteristics to be modified
StuffIt Tools.hqx     A number of accessory programs for use with the StuffIt
                      1.5.1 system.  Primarily of use to frequent StuffIt
                      users.


DEARCHIVING ".HQX" FILES

All ".hqx" files must first be decoded using a BinHex 4.0 algorithm and then 
uncompressed using a StuffIt 1.5.1 algorithm.  The "dearchive" directory or 
the MacKermit/Dearchive diskette from BIONET contain the needed programs to do 
this.
