worse then that it doesn't even handle stuffit 4 archives, only the anchient never used 1.5.1. actually looking at the package list i don't think it even includes that. .sit is even more proprietary then MS Word .doc. > You might also find megatron from the netatalk package useful for > de-hqx'ing and converting to and from MacBinary... macbinary != .sit niether is binhex/hqx. .sit is about the same as encrypting your files to an aladdin encryption key and putting yourself at thier mercy.
