Is there anything about which will let me extract individual
files from a DiskDoubler self-extracting archive? I tried to
extract the Russian System 6.0.7 off my Developer's CD yesterday,
onto a partition on my hard drive which had 15Mb free. Halfway
through the expander complained that the disk was full. WHAT??!!
15Mb??!! Argh!

Any suggestions?
