HQXer 1.0    by John Stiles
								
	HQXer allows you to extract files from BinHex archives in the quickest, most painless way possible. Before, extracting files required either excessive effort or a lot of waiting. Now, that’s all changed.
	Installation: You can place the HQXer program wherever you want. System 6.0.7 is recommended, and System 7.0 (or higher) is best. With Systems below version 6.0.7, nothing’s guaranteed.
	Distribution: HQXer is freeware, meaning that you can copy it freely among your friends. Just follow that simple rules, so that everyone can enjoy HQXer.
	Please don’t distribute HQXer without this accompanying documentation file! Do not distribute modified versions of HQXer. Also, HQXer may not be sold for profit or given away as any type of incentive without the author’s express permission.
	Usage: To extract a file, you can:
	a) Select “Extract…” from the File menu. You will be prompted to select a file to extract.
	b) Drag its icon onto HQXer. (This only works under System 7.)
Either way, you will see a dialog similar to the following:

	Clicking “Skip” will skip the current file within the HQX archive, and continue searching the archive. Clicking “Stop” will abort extraction of the entire archive.
	Options: To choose your preferences, select “Preferences…” from the File menu. The following dialog will appear:

	If “Delete source file” is on, after a file is extracted from its BinHex archive, it will be deleted. Otherwise, the BinHex archive will not be deleted.
	“Delete partial files” will delete any files which HQXer was not able to fully extract, due to errors or a corrupted BinHex archive.
	“Allow background tasks” allows you to choose whether HQXer will allow you to work while files are being extracted. If “Allow background tasks” is on, you will be able to work in other applications while HQXer extracts. If it is off, you will not be able to change programs. However, you will see a significant speed increase if you leave background tasks off. (With background tasks off, HQXer will use all memory available to it, whereas putting it on only allows for a small amount of memory for HQXer’s use.)
	Questions? If you have any questions, comments, ideas or bug reports, please send them to “camp5@csbina.csubak.edu” (Internet) or “JohnStiles” (America Online). I will try to set everything straight for you.
	If you like HQXer, please send me a little note. I’d be happy to hear from you!
	Thanks for using HQXer…			*Stiles
