     Ok, this may sound stupid, but I recently started checking out ftp sites,
and they contain files labeled with a .hqx extension.   For example:
  
                 Whatzit.sit.hqx
  
     I was told that these files are encoded using BinHex, and I need that to
 decode them.  Any suggestions on whether this is true, and if so, where I
 could get a copy?
  
    Thanx.
