@John: on Unix (including OSX) the non-graphical tool usr/bin/file can guess
the file type by looking for typical "magic numbers".

I finally managed to contact the original author of the program and get a
complete hqx from 1999. Last year said person had the same problem but only
found the broken files. Things can easily disappear from the Internet...

have to get MacPerl.
