As requested, here's one version of 'shar' (pulled off the net a while back):

+---------------
| separator='!Funky!Stuff!'
| echo ': This is a shar archive.  Extract with sh, not csh.'
| for f in $*
| do
| 	echo "echo x - $f"
| 	echo "cat > $f << '$separator'"
| 	cat $f
| 	echo "$separator"
| done
+---------------

"Now that didn't hurt a bit, did it...?"
