Yeah, something like that..  I already have sciibin for unix, which takes a
Binscii file and converts it back to Apple format.  What I would like now is
the opposite of that: something for unix that will take a file (whether it is
binary or text) and put it into Binscii text format.  i'm sure it's out there
somewhere, but couldn't find it on caltech.
