MacBinHex OSAX 1.1 written by Sean Hummel
version 1.1 fixes a bug in the decoder, and improves speed considerably, of both the encoder and decoder.
Have you ever looked around for some good HQX code so that you could include creating HQX files in your automated process? Well this is it. While I'll admit it is not the fastest code in the universe, it is certainly easy to read, and fairly well documented. As well as being free, this gives you everything you need to make an HQX program. The code supports both encoding and decoding, however the encoding DOES NOT do RLE compression, but the decoder does support decoding RLE compression in the HQX file.
I've included the binhex.txt file, which I used to write my code from. The OSAX ditributed here, is completely free as well, and may be used for any purpose. I use it to remove the use of StuffIt? to encode distributables, from my Applescripts. This makes my Applescripts correctly all the time, as there are not any problems locating the StuffIt application.
