is there a mac utility that will unpack shell archives? I've got a lot of little source files that need to go down to my mac, and I don't want to do them one at a time, nor is batching reliable. PLEASE respond via net mail, or post to csmp. thanks. -JT

Let me know if you find one; better yet, mail it to me please. Thanks. I suppose , if one does not exist, I suppose I could hack something up in QuickBasic or C or something. watch this space for more details, coming soon to a UNIX near you BTW: What IS the format of shell archives anyways? ______________________________________________________________________________ Donald Burr, c60a-cz@danube.Berkeley.edu | "I have a seperate mail-address University of California, Berkeley | for flames and other such nega- Majoring in Computer Science | tive msgs; it's called /dev/null."
