The Apple Macintosh stores each file in 2 parts, a resource
part and a data part. The resource part is managed by the
operating system while the data part is managed by the application.
To transfer Macintosh files via systems that use a more conventional
paradigm (i.e. the rest of the world) one can pack both parts into
McBinary or HQX format. The HQX format consists only of printable
ASCII characters similar to what uuencode produces.
Mcvert can extract both parts from such packed files and can also
pack pairs into a McBinary file.
The file mcvert.1 contains the nroff input for the UNIX man page.
The result can be found in nroff.0 for those who do not have a
working nroff.

This version fixes a couple of "features" of the original UNIX program
in that it checks error codes. It also fixes a bug where the file
/dev/null was used instead of the Amiga-OS equivalent NIL:. This did
cause crashes where /dev/null couldn't be opened.
