A big piece of software gets posted to comp.binaries.mac. What do
you have to do to use it? First, save all the pieces. Then copy them to
your Mac (I use ftp). Then put the pieces back together (United). Then
unbinhex them (StuffIt). Then extract the StuffIt archive (a different
StuffIt operation). Then get rid off all the intermediate files (drag them
into the trash).
What I'm looking for is one program which will do the last few
steps all at once. You give it the basename of a group of files, it finds
all the files called basename.[1234...], combines them, unbinhexes them,
extracts everything from the resulting StuffIt archive, and discards all
the intermediate files. Does such a thing exist?
