Hello, I have this FTP address to download an English-French glossary but the format is (.bin). I guess it is a Mac format. Does somebody know how to convert such a format ?
Thanks

bin is a image Feb 4, 2004

Just a Image file but you will need the .cue file too.
Burn it and install it

Ups it is a Mac File! Feb 4, 2004

This file is to small to be a Image.
I think it is a Mac zipped file (StuffIt Expander)

Il faut être sur Mac Feb 5, 2004

Ce n'est pas l'extension .bin le problème, c'est l'extension .dmg juste à l'intérieur, qui est une image-disque ne pouvant être lue que par des systèmes Mac assez récents - peut-être Classic, peut-être OS X seulement.

Installation image for MacOS X Feb 5, 2004

It's for OSX (Classic won't recognize it)
The easiest thing (the only one that comes to my mind at the moment) is to have someone extracting the file from the image for you and convert it into any interchangeable format (txt, csv etc.)

Sorry I can't help more

I can do it for Gilles, if he wants.

isobuster not suitable Mar 7, 2004

Hi! there is a tool known as isobuster, good for .bin, iso, cue files - brandis


Isobuster is used to decompress Windows CD images (e.g. *.bin files as created by CDRWin). It is certainly not suitable at all for MacBinary (BIN) files like the Mac glossaries.
