- I used mcvert to convert my file to binary.
- Then capit to (I guess) convert it to mac.
-
- Then I got cpt-expand-10.hqx. Brought it onto the mac
- and tried to run it on my news.
-
- The menu that came up would not allow selection of
- the news because it was of type "document", and it would
- only accept (highlight) entries of "folder".
-
-
- Still no-go.
