I also had problems with binhex, until I realized that the program is expecting
'upload' files to have carriage-return-only as a line separator, and of course
my unix system uses newline-only as line separators. Before downloading,
try translating with something like
tr '\012' '\015' a.y
then download a.y. Your local version of tr may want something other than
the escaped-octal codes I have shown, check the man page for tr(1).
