BinHex is a BASIC program which converts the contents of Macintosh files
into .HEX files which can be uploaded and downloaded using MacTEP. This
is the first version I have seen which can handle both data and resource
files. Note: unless you set the "Bundle bit" on downloaded applications,
they will always have the "generic" application icon.

To run BinHex, you first need to get into MS-BASIC and do a Clear ,24000.
Otherwise, there won't be enough free memory to load the program.

[BINHEX is on {SUMEX}BINHEX.BAS. Ed.]
