Along similar lines the following tools are occasionally useful:

unshar-2.hqx
unzip-101.hqx
uu-decoder.hqx
vax-xbin.hqx
tar-20.hqx

These utilities can be found in the /info-mac/comm directory of
the sumex-aim.stanford.edu anonymous ftp server, along with brief 
descriptions in the abstracts file.
