Hi
I turn to your combined wisdom, because I don't know where else to go.
I want to send a small Mac binary file to a friend.
All the methods I've tried so far result in the unsetting of the executable bit.
I know this can be reset using chmod +x, but he is reluctant to use any
terminal command involving sudo, which this would.
I have tried so far,
Straight email attachment
Zipped email attachment (which works sending to my hotmail address but not to
his gmail address)
Wetransfer both zipped and unzipped
As a .tar.gz compressed file
I have now run out of ideas.
Is there a small app with a GUI, or an AppleScript I could send him, which
would do the chmod fix, without him having to resort to the terminal.
I can't find where I originally downloaded this binary, so he can't download it
for himself.
The binary is a command line program called scanimage, which allows me to
interface with a flatbed scanner from 4D using LEP, and works very well.
Thanks
