Bit of a disappointment:  Craig Ruff's tar seems to break under
System 7.0 in normal 24-bit mode.  Has anyone managed to patch it
or find an alternative?  (I know about the StuffIt translator --
but I am looking for something to include with a freeware utility.)
On a similar note:  does anyone know who wrote "unshar".  The creator
code is R&DT ... sounds like Apple R&D, or somebody else?

I'll summarize if there's interest.  -- Bill (johnston@minnie.me.udel.edu)
