What about .sit.hqx files? I can't seem to find any way to get those
useable.

I tried some of the programs like mcvert, but never really liked them.
Then just by chance one day I tried Xdeview which I found on my Debian
menus (in windowmaker).  It worked great at decoding binhexed
attachments that my friends with macs send me.  
Best,

Ric

apt-cache search binhex
turns up a number of likely options including mcvert, which looks like
it will do just what you want. Also maybe the macutils package will do
this.

Package: mcvert
Priority: optional
Section: non-free/otherosfs
Installed-Size: 100
Maintainer: Debian QA Group <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Architecture: i386
Version: 2.16-9
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.3-1)
Filename: pool/non-free/m/mcvert/mcvert_2.16-9_i386.deb
Size: 28724
MD5sum: 488b102d60e9e2545a2f342ef4529386
Description: A Mac to Unix file converter
 The mcvert program translates files between MacBinary format
 and other formats often used in exchanging Macintosh files.
 (e.g. MacBinary {I,II}, Binhex 4.0, PackIt archives and the
 data/rsrc/info three file format).
 .
 mcvert can also translate Mac line endings (CR) to unix line
 endings (LF) and vice versa.
 .
 By default it converts Binhex to Macbinary, but many other
 conversions can be done.

cheers
