This is not exactly what youasked for but if you are collecting your multi
piece file from the net on a unix machine (eg. file.p1, file.p2, file.p3), what
you can do is get a copy of mcvert. Mcvert will take the pieces, combine them
and convert them into macbinary in one shot. (eg. mcvert file.p*). This not
only combines the pieces and strips out the news headers, etc. but also creates
the macbinary version which is much smaller than the binhex ones combined
resulting in a much faster download time.

When you download, most mac terminal type programs will let you download the
macbinary directly resulting immediatly in a file all set to use, unless of
course it's a stuffit file but then you just run stuffit on it.

Hope this helps!
