YES!!!  It would be nice to have a Unix utility to .sit a file that we
could unstuff on our Mac.  I have often had the trouble of uploading
many files from my Mac to the vax and the same goes the other way.  This
would save many keystrokes and minutes, not to mention frustration!!!
This utility would especially be useful with seperate compilation.
