I find that "cleaning" up the header text with a text editor like MacSink or
Sigma-Edit usually gets rid of the offending chars. If you use rn, and save the
binaries with w ../MacStuff/fname, it automatically appends the saved portion to
to the file fname, however you get header info between the files. Using the find
option, search for "part", and eradicate the unwanted text between parts. Or use
the bhcomb script that was posted a while back.
