I just downloaded 101 Adobe screen fonts from Sumex. They're binhexed Stuffit archives. I hate to think of de-archiving all these manually. I thought there was a discussion of MPW tools awhile back. Does anyone know where I can get them? Alternately, are there any suggestions of other ways to do this?

Alternately, are there any suggestions of >other ways to do this? I have a port of the UNIX utility xbin which runs under the MPW shell. The MPW tool differs from the UNIX program in that it creates only one file as opposed to three files (.info, .rsrc, and .data). I'd be happy to send it to anyone who wants it, or if enough people request it I could post it to comp.sys.mac.binaries Milt Sagen Internet: sagen@nucthy.physics.orst.edu Department of Physics Oregon State University Corvallis, OR 97331 Tele: (503) 754-4631

Seriously, for those of you who want to create StuffIt 1.4ish archives, I have seen it around in one of the Mac archives; it was posted last summer; it really is called ShoveIt. -- Frank Malczewski (malczews@castor.usc.edu)
