BTW it worked on >the First try, getting StuffItExpndr 5.5, on the SE/30. These instructions are great... for those using systems UNDER 7.5. I have a Mac SE FDHD, 7.5. PC exchange allows me to read PC disks. My problem is that the PC doesn't unstuff items right, therefore I can't get them to work on Mac. I've heard plenty of "use .hqx". But what if you don't have a binhex uncompressor? There's wehre I need help. .hqx is no better than .zip. The point is they're compressed, and PeeCee's are made to kill any sign of Mac format. (Exept for floppies, of course.) Any help? I need a .sea file for mac with an uncompressing program. Anybody know where I can find one?
