The last few days I've noticed a lot a mail claiming that some useful
DA's and applications were archived into . When I ftp to
sumex and did an `ls' on the particular items, they don't seem to be
there as advertised. In particular, I wanted the new (version 2.1 ?) binhex
and the explore DA in DAM format, though it was there in non-sumacc C.
I did find the mock* family, but when I copied them over, I noticed
that they had blank lines between each real line. Worse yet was that
mockprint.hcx did not seem to be a binhex file at all, because I found
lots of control characters in it.

I'm sure that trying to keep up with posting all the software you get
is quite a chore, and I just wanted to bring these discrepancies to your
attension. I think you are providing an invaluable service for all Mac
lovers across the country (applause!).
