In the documentation, it lists 2 sites to get sound files:
terminator.cc.umich.edu, and sumex.stanford.edu.  The files at sumex
are compressed mac files, and I have not seen an IBM program which
will uncompress this particular compression technique.  Therefore, 
those files require a Mac and Unstuffit, as well as a way to get the
sounds from a Mac to an IBM.

The files at terminator.cc.umich.edu were moved--they are now at
msdos.archive.umich.edu.  You can find some sounds already converted
for use on IBM's for such programs as ReMac and Sounder, under
the archive/msdos/sound directory.

If anyone knows of an UnStuffit program for the IBM, would they please
reply.

Hope this is helpful.

Kevin
