These are all .zip or .tar.gz files of the Unix/Linux persuasion. Is there a
tool to encode such files with MacBinary on a Unix platform, albeit then
that file most likely won't be useful for non-Mac users :-(

Just go to:
http://www.postnuke.com/download.php?op=viewdownload&cid=1
Grab any of the files on there:
http://www.postnuke.com/download.php?op=getit&lid=1
http://www.postnuke.com/download.php?op=getit&lid=2
and compare that to the SourceForge site:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=27927
and any of the files on there that do it properly:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/post-nuke/fallout0_50.tar.gz
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/post-nuke/fallout0_50.zip
I'd be really curious about any differences in the way these two sites send
the data, as they both work equally properly on the Windows and Netscape
sides.
Thanks,
Harry
