Combat Aid 1.0 is a small Classic Mac utility credited to Benjamin Birney (benyb2@aol.com) and distributed through the Info-Mac game archive's adventure section. It survives in the archive only as a BinHex-encoded StuffIt download, with the author's brief Subject line as its sole period documentation.
Archive placement
The file is filed under info-mac/game/adv, the adventure-game subtree, suggesting it was intended as a play aid rather than a standalone game. Its exact target title is not stated in the surviving header.
Distribution format
Like most Info-Mac uploads of the era, the package ships as combat-aid-10.hqx, a BinHex 4.0 wrapper around a StuffIt archive. Decoding requires a Classic Mac with StuffIt Expander or a compatible modern unpacker.
Source notes
No Macintosh Garden landing page for Combat Aid was reachable at enrichment time, and the BinHex header carries no long description, so this entry intentionally avoids speculating about gameplay or the parent title.
This file is part of the MacTrove archive. See the Thank You page for the upstream mirrors we rely on. It is BinHex encoded — use The Unarchiver to decode it.
