October 22, 1990 — Version 1.6 Aladdin Systems Presents… StuffIt Classic ™ The Macintosh Archive Utility for the Apple® Macintosh Written by Raymond Lau. Published by Aladdin Systems, Inc.

StuffIt Classic and StuffIt Deluxe are Copyright © 1990 Aladdin Systems, Inc. and Raymond Lau. All Rights Reserved. This User’s Guide is written by Raymond Lau and David Schargel and is © 1990 by Aladdin Systems, Inc. and Raymond Lau. This manual has been set in the Courier and Times fonts. StuffIt Classic User’s Guide 1. Introduction W h a t i s StuffIt Classic ? StuffIt Classic is a useful file archiving utility that allows you to do the following: 1. Gather many files together into a single “archive”. 2. Optionally compress those files. 3. Optionally generate a report of the entries in an archive. 4. Segment large files for transmission by modem or for archiving from a hard disk onto floppies. 5. Create self-unstuffing archives. 6. Encode and Decode BinHex4 .hqx files. 7. UnPack PackIt II/III “.pit” files and optionally convert them to the StuffIt format. 8. Decode “optimized” files created with StuffIt Deluxe. Of course, StuffIt Classic also allows you to “UnStuff” files that have previously been archived (or “stuffed”) by you or another user. StuffIt Classic is the newest version of the long available StuffIt software. You will occasionally see the words StuffIt and StuffIt Classic used interchangably. Since StuffIt was first available in 1987, it became an industry standard for compression and archiving. Early in 1990, Aladdin Systems introduced StuffIt Deluxe, introducing many new features into the original StuffIt. A few of these features have found their way into this 1.6 version of StuffIt Classic , so longtime users of StuffIt may see some new, welcome additions. The StuffIt Deluxe package also includes a comprehensive manual that is quite different from what you’re reading now. In addition to a comprehensive reference section, the StuffIt Deluxe manual includes scores of “hand holding” tutorials that beginning users may find easier to digest than this User’s Guide. First time users may also find some of the features within StuffIt Deluxe (such as “point and click” access from the Finder and a simplified menu structure) much easier to use than…
