So how can you tell when a pleasure crosses the line from innocent to guilty? 1. The pleasure is plain wrong. 2. The pleasure captivates and captures you. 3. The pleasure is hidden. 4. The pleasure steals you away from the good. 5. The pleasure doesn’t deliver.

Two solutions:

  1. Use XModem-CRC with MacBinary II. Or, use YModem (not YModem-g, which is not as reliable). This should work OK — it works on my Mac at home.
  2. After you download the file, if it says it’s a ‘MacWrite’ type file and you know it’s a Stuffit file instead (i.e., has the suffix ‘.SIT’), use the utility program ResEdit (from Apple) or MacTools 7.2 (from Central Point Software in Oregon). These pro grams can modify the file type and creator to the proper ones. You would follow instructions to change the type and creator to ‘SIT!’ and ‘SIT!’ for Stuffit files. Then Stuffit will be able to open the file.

The major problem is that some early variants of XModem and MacBinary do not reliably transfer the file type and creator, as I mentioned. File type and creator are properties or identifiers carried by every Mac file. Stuffit has ‘SIT!’ and MacWrite has ‘ MACA’ or ‘TEXT.’

Good luck, and let me know if it doesn’t work. Otherwise, use Red Ryder 9.4, which is on our Mac board under ‘COMMUNICATIONS’ software. That’s worked well for m
