file extension HQX - BinHex archive format, orig. Macintosh
File extension HQX description:
The BinHex format was created to satisfy two specific needs. First, to allow transferring binary files (therefore coded on 8 bits) sent on the Internet, whose pipes are not always "8-bit clean". This means that there must be some sort of mapping between a 8-bit stream and a 7-bit stream. Secondly, to bundle in a single container both forks composing a Macintosh file. Last but not the least, the author, Yves Lempereur, added a compression function, of the RLE type, to avoid sending repetitive sequences of identical characters.
