- Yesterday I allocated an extensive amount of time to
- downloading the demo for First Things First from SUMEX.
- My modem is only 1200 baud.
-
- I decoded the binhex, then noticed that the resulting
- file has a DD suffix. I tried to double-click the file,
- but it appears not to be self-extracting. I then tried
- to translate it using the DD translator in Stuffit Deluxe,
- with the result of a message that I needed the DD INIT, which
- is not provided with the Stuffit Deluxe package.
-
- Any suggestions, other than to buy DD to try out another
- application's demo? I hope that there is a trouble-free
- and fast solution.
-
- Thx,
- Steve
