What archive format exactly is this?  I have been unable to "deARC"
any binaries that I have downloaded from the net.  I tried UNIX "ar"
but this apparently isn't the format.  I'm sure others have had
similar problems, so if some kind soul out there could post an answer
it would be appreciated (as opposed to e-mail).

Thanks,
