There are at least two shell archive programs for the Amiga that I know of.
I wrote one of them.  It's on disk 92 in the Fred Fish library.  It
understands shell archives that use "cat" to write the files.  Craig
Norborg wrote the other one.  It understands "sed" shell archives.  There
are probably quite a few others.  They aren't particularly hard to write.
