-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.PP
-\fBmegatron\fR
-is used to transform files from BinHex, MacBinary, AppleSingle, or
-\fBnetatalk\fR
-style AppleDouble formats into MacBinary or
-\fBnetatalk\fR
-style AppleDouble formats\&. The
-\fBnetatalk\fR
-style AppleDouble format is the file format used by
-\fBafpd,\fR
-the
-\fBnetatalk\fR
-Apple Filing Protocol (AppleShare) server\&. BinHex, MacBinary, and AppleSingle are commonly used formats for transferring Macintosh files between machines via email or file transfer protocols\&.
-\fBmegatron\fR
-uses its name to determine what type of transformation is being asked of it\&.
-.PP
-If
-\fBmegatron\fR
-is called as
-\fBunhex\fR
-,
-\fBunbin\fR
-or
-\fBunsingle\fR, it tries to convert file(s) from BinHex, MacBinary, or AppleSingle into AppleDouble format\&. BinHex is the format most often used to send Macintosh files by e\-mail\&. Usually these files have an extension of "\&.hqx"\&. MacBinary is the format most often used by terminal emulators "on the fly" when transferring Macintosh files in binary mode\&. MacBinary files often have an extension of "\&.bin"\&. Some Macintosh LAN\-based email packages use uuencoded AppleSingle format to "attach" or "enclose" files in email\&. AppleSingle files don\*(Aqt have a standard filename extension\&.
-.PP
-If
-\fBmegatron\fR
-is called as
-\fBhqx2bin\fR,
-\fBsingle2bin\fR, or
-\fBmacbinary\fR, it will try to convert the file(s) from BinHex, AppleSingle, or AppleDouble into MacBinary\&. This last translation may be useful in moving Macintosh files from your
-\fBafpd\fR
-server to some other machine when you can\*(Aqt copy them from the server using a Macintosh for some reason\&.
-.PP
-If
-\fBmegatron\fR
-is called with any other name, it uses the default translation, namely
-\fBunhex\fR\&.
-.PP
-If no source file is given, or if
-\fIsourcefile\fR
-is `\fB\-\fR\*(Aq, and if the conversion is from a BinHex or MacBinary file,
-\fBmegatron\fR
-will read from standard input\&.
-.PP
-The filename used to store any output file is the filename that is encoded in the source file\&. MacBinary files are created with a "\&.bin" extension\&. In the case of conflicts, the old file is overwritten!
