UnSquashOnly.Z (in pub/next/2.0-release/binaries)
will do it.  (Maybe should be demos since it's an ad for a
commercial product.)  I've been unhappy with Squash, so
you can bet it won't be Squashed anymore when it gets out of
submissions. 

(I cannot begin to describe my feeling of disgust and
revulsion toward most of these archiving programs.  I've
seen and used most of them and have not been pleased yet. 
Especially when they're commercial products.  Kind of
explains why I don't use them on the files at sonata/nova,
eh?)
