This looks like a good solution if one needs a small binhex conversion
util.

Hello,

Enclosed below is Howard Fukuda's excellent Desk Accessory
"BinHqx 1.02 DA'.  Shareware $5.   It dates 1990, but works
very fine with System 7.   Handles both Encoding/Decoding BinHex,
plus, 'Join&Decode' and 'Segment' features.

By setting the 'I/O buffer size' to the maximum, it operates
VERY quickly.  Works twice/threetimes faster than StuffIt's
translator!

Hope you enjoy it:
