Ok, I admit it, I am the author of the shar program that Michael
Cooper posted.  You can tell it's mine by the use of "funky stuff".

I didn't originate the idea.  I got it from James Gosling, who used
to bundle up his emacs distribution this way before the days of
Unipress.  I don't know whether the idea is original with him or not.
