If and when I ever need to uBIN a file, I use the
GScii + on the IIgs. It is an NDA or CDA, can/t remember
which offhand, but it shows up under the APPLE menu.

Many of the more commonly used BINSCII files have been
converted to SHK (ShrinkIt) format and are easily uSHK'd
with ShrinkIt 3.4 on 8-bit or GShk on the IIgs. Some of
these are even placed in the same folder with the BINSCII
version.
