I'm looking for the program that creates shell archives; these are
self-extracting archives whose headers look like:

#! /bin/sh
# This is a shell archive, meaning:
# 1. Remove everything above the #! /bin/sh line.
# 2. Save the resulting text in a file.
# 3. Execute the file with /bin/sh (not csh) to create the files:
#	foo
#	bar
#	baz
# This archive created: Mon Feb  5 20:51:08 1990

If you can tell me where to get this (anonymous ftp is fine), or send it to
me, I'd be most grateful.
