Thanks Randy.  Chuck Orem emailed me earlier and suggested I use GSHK 1.1,
which worked fine on the copy I got from ftp.apple.com.  I should've checked
ftp.support.apple.com as well, but I just assumed that site wouldn't have
any IIGS stuff.  Apple Disk Copy images would've been preferable to all the
hoops I had to jump through to get copies of Binscii, GScii, and updated
copies of ShrinkIt and GSHK.

I've been out of the Apple II world for almost two years now since I sold my
old IIe and bought a Mac.  But my company recently obsoleted all its IIGS
hardware, and to get rid of all the junk in the hardware inventory room in a
hurry last week, they offered it all free to employees.  Can't say no to
that!  I walked away with a 1.25MB ROM 01 IIGS, TransWarp GS, SuperSonic
stereo card, Super Serial card, Apple SCSI card, RamKeeper, fan, two 3.5 and
two 5.25 drives, monitor, keyboard and mouse.  Most of the cards were
unused, still in the original shrink-wrapped boxes.  I've now got the system
set up as a "nostalgia piece" in the living room.
