I thought I'd share with y'all a little script I wrote this afternoon to
remove the binhex encoding from a file sent by a Mac. As Macs have
resource and data forks, this can't be guaranteed to do everything
necessary, but it is probably all you need.

#!/usr/bin/python

import binhex, sys

def main():
 if len(sys.argv) < 3:
  print 'usage: %s input_file output_file' % sys.argv[0]
  sys.exit(1)
  
 binhex.hexbin (sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2])

if __name__ == '__main__':
 main()
