Yes and over the past few years three other people before you came up
with the very same utility in the very same amount of time.

IT DOES NOT WORK WITH MY MACINTOSH.

First in order to decode a Yenc file you have to be able to download
a Yenc file.

There is no program that I have been able to find that will work with
my OS and download a Yenc file.... PERIOD.

I'm surprised you didn't come across MT Newswatcher.

Oh..... You did.

It's a cousin of YA Newswatcher and YES the latest versions of MT
Newswatcher will download and decode Yenc. But NO there is not a
version of that program that will work with my older OS.

Back to square one.

So your argument does not hold--there's nothing to stop you from
getting the utility and using it.

As I've just explained that the arguement still holds water.

This is a problem for a Mac person,

And I have yet to find one with a solution.

Plenty of advice YES.... a solution... NO.

I'm sorry I can't help.

Well I'm sorry too. There's no doubt that my life would be a lot
easier if I could decode these images like the majority.

I used to use yEnc TZ on my old Macs when I was running 8.6. It worked
fine. If it's not working for you, you're doing something wrong. My
memory might be fuzzy, but I think what you have to do is use the
Extract Binaries (command-b) to download the files, then drop it onto TZ
to decode them.

Just curious: why are you still running 8.6? If you need just a basic
Mac there are any number of G3 & G4 machines that can be had for CHEAP
that will run OSX and also boot into 8.6, or run it in "Classic" mode.
Well, you might have to use OS9 to do that.
