When TransMac transfers the BinHex file to the Mac floppy, it decodes
it, so it can be used (expander 5.5 is a 729K .hqx file, but actually is
1.12M) when you put it back into the Mac. Of course it will not work if
you transfer a .sit.hqx file, or similar.
Anyway, when the floppy is opened up, the file you have is *Aladdin
Expander 5.5 Installer* double click on the file and it's all down hill
from there. The web site for Aladdin says SSW 7.1.1 - 8.0 but I Know, it
will work on 7.1, I did it, won't work on 7.0 or under though.
