... and I'd like to suggest that people putting together Stuffit files
please refrain form sticking everything into a folder. If it's in a
folder, and it takes a half-hour to unStuff, then it'll report that
it's 0% complete until the very end. When it's only dealing with
separate files, its report of how far it still has to go is more
accurate.
