I have just ftp'd SHAR.PRG and SHAR.SRC from RADC-SOFTVAX.ARPA which
is supposed to implement the SHell ARchive utility.  Ergo, I don't
think one needs to have access to a UN*X (why does everybody put
a '*' in UNIX??) to unARChive these SHell files.  I also checked and
SHAR is available from LISTSERV@CANADA01.BITNET as:

	PROG-A16 87-00114	SHAR source
	PROG-A16 87-00120	SHAR.PRG (1 of 2)
	PROG-A16 87-00121	SHAR.PRG (2 of 2)

i have not used it yet (i usually just unSHAR it on the Sun), but
if i have any problems i will warn the net.

++
PROG-A16 87-00024 PRINTG.TTP from LISTSERVE@CANADA01.BINET gives
a 'short file' message when it us decoded (on a Sun) using uudecode.
++
ICON.ARC from RADC-SOFTVAX which got it from LISTSERV@CANADA01.BITNET
causes a core dump (again, on a Sun) when i try to test the ARChive
integrity using ARC 5.20.  (i'm going to try to go straight to LISTSERV.
i hope that works.  if not, i will let somebody know.)
