I've read about MacBinary and BinHex, two programs that supposedly can combine the resource forks so that they're saved when transferring from MFS to HFS. Are these programs available as disk images, or are they built into the OS?

As I recall, files with the extension .hqx or .sit are constructed to combine the resource forks and data forks so the file isn't corrupted. I think that there are/were several utilities that could construct these types of files. I would have to hunt through a rather large and dusty pile of "archives" to be sure and to find specific applications.
