Yuan Kong:

The reason your file got binhexed is because your mac gb file is a binary
file, not a text file. Binhex for Mac serves similar functions to unix
uuencode, which gets binary files into text files so that they can
be transferable through email. To send your Mac files correctly onto
this net, You have to get HZ-2.0.hqx in ifcss.org, software/mac/convert.
This one can convert Mac gb files into hz files, which are text files
you can send directly through email. Make sure you type "gb2hz -t80" at
the command line instead of "gb2hz" to get correct line endings.

Good luck!
