- Hi,
-
- I have a binhexed self-extracing archive sitting on my linux box that
- I want to get executor (199d) to recognize. All of the following
- fail:
-
- using HFS transfer to:
-
- 1) moving it into the executorvolume file system and having executor
- recognize it (even if I use the unix utility hexbin first to
- convert it back to a .sea file)
-
- 2) move the file into the ExecutorVolume directory structure and then
- try to unbinhex it (binhex starts doing something, and then dies --
- the whole executor process hangs)
-
- 3) trying to unhex it elsewhere on the drive (in /tmp)
-
- and probably other stuff as well. it's a 3 meg file. what I will
- next try is using CompactPro on the mac but putting it onto three
- floppies.
-
- are there easier ways to manipulate the executor file system under
- linux?
-
- if someone needs more detail or has the answer, please let me know.
-
- (the application is MCL 2.0.1, by the way. if it works, I am
- definitely buying executor)
-
