I have to say you are missing out by not owning a PC as how else can you appreciate a MAC?? However I digress and I expect you will understand this more than I but when I suggested using MacBinary with Transmac it was information that I gleaned from one of the other threads. The program itself basically allows PC-Mac & Mac-PC file transfer and one of the options is MacBinary as well as automatic and HQX. Unfortunately I have not spent much time experimenting once I got it to work. The Classic with 7.1 software and PC exchange has no problem reading and writing PC files and formatting PC disks as you would know but copying a Mac executable from a PC even with a Mac formatted floppy will not work as the Mac still looks at the file as a PC file. Transmac takes care of that very nicely although in some cases MacBinary does not work but the "Auto" setting seems to.
