mac file to unix format

2003-02-26 Thread Bryan Cassidy
I have found many Mac wallpapers online that are in .sit format and I
was wondering if there was a way I could convert a .sit file to say a
.png file so I could use the image on freebsd 5?

thanks in advance

Howdy,

.sit files are compressed with StuffIt, a very common compression
program for Mac. You can use archivers/stuffit to expand them.

.sit is Stuffit, an archiver/compressor similar to zip, or tar+gzip.
You'll need to extract the file(s) in the archive and see what graphics
format they're really in.

Take a look at /usr/ports/archivers/stuffit.  I don't know if it works
with all Stuffit files or not (e.g. it may be outdated).
