Thank you, but I have a Mac on the next table ;-)) PC and Mac are connected with 10 MB ethernet and shared shome old ink postscript printer. Very nice setup, but the road to the Mac has only one direction. Apart from web-sharing, I am not able to connect to Mac and work with files. The other way round works right with netatalk.

So we all can participate in this very interesting discussion.

AFAIK, there is a package called macutils, providing just the possibility to extract Mac .hqx and .bin files. But I have lost any URL. Is there something to extract .sit archives as well?

My Mac font question
Wow-- This turned into a lively discussion, including a couple of responses direct to me. Here's the situation. On: http://www.fontsite.com/Pages/FFDownloads.html There's a really neat font that gives a very clear display at 7 point. I'd like it very much. But here's what it says: Mini 7 was designed by Joe Gillespie. It's only a screen font, so it doesn't have a printer font as all Type 1 fonts do. It is specifically designed to be used at 7 points, or what we call "mouse type." Mini 7 is great for captions or buttons on web graphics. In fact, we've used it in several places throughout the FontSite. There are two versions--Mini and Mini Tight--with different metrics. Mini 7 is Freeware and is only available for the Macintosh I downloaded it, but it's in that .hqx format. I read at: http://www.calarts.edu/network/compress.html I should be able to open it, but I don't know how. I have installed plenty of PS fonts, do not use TT fonts, and would like to know if I can use this font (should I ever learn how to unstuff the file). -- Thanks!
