convert macbinary files into normal files

## NAME

frombin - convert macbinary files into normal files

## SYNOPSIS

**frombin** **macbinaryfile**...

## DESCRIPTION

The program **frombin** reads a series of macbinary files and unwraps them. On the mac it will produce a file similar to the original one. On non-macs it will create (up to) three files, one for the data fork (called \<filename\>.data), one for the resource fork (called \<filename\>.rsrc) and one containing random information in a human readable format (called \<filename\>.info).
