There was several versions of Binkd available under the name AmiBinkd but
they were all terrible in terms of memory leakage which eventually brought
the entire system down. I tried them all and the last one, v9.04 I believe,
did not perform any better.  The source for this version was never
published and I believe the person behind it tried to charge money for it
for a while, hence it was removed from Aminet.
