I don't know if they are 32-bit clean or if they'll work with A/UX, but
MacTar and MacCompress is already available. I also happens to like the
(original) Unix philosophy of creating small, independent filters, and
with the Multifinder-only System 7.0, I see no need to combine BinHex,
Tar and Compress into one ugly application.
