Probably the files got mangled during download. Did you use Netscape to |
| 13 |
get them? I've heard (but can't confirm) that Netscape and some other |
| 14 |
browsers automatically expand HQX files when downloading (which would not |
| 15 |
be helpful on a non-Mac system). I'd expect the file to be renamed when |
| 16 |
that happens, but I'm not sure. What does the "file" command say about |
| 17 |
those files? |

BTW, I just grabbed that same file using Konqueror, and here's what I |
| 20 |
got: |

You could try using Konqueror, or dillo (tiny browser), lynx... or even |
| 33 |
wget http://www.aladdinsys.com/downloads/files/aladdin_exp55.hqx ;) |
