What's wrong with BinHex (with or without initial compaction)?
Correct me if I'm wrong (because I'd certainly like to know if I am), but I
think that BinHex is just a way to convert binary files to ASCII so that
they can be sent through e-mail. You still need to choose what format the
binary original will be in. Not to mention that I think BinHex is mostly a
MacIntosh thing.
