I downloaded a modplayer for sonata in the submissions directory and  
untarred it.  However, the archive contained the file  
"ModPlayer.app.squfold",  What do I do with this file?  Thanks.

This is a squash file. You will need "Squash.app" to decompress it. This
however is not, unfortunately, a public domain program, so you will have
to find someone who has Squash to help you out.

This is wrong.  All that is needed to UN-Squash things is the PD
UnSquash app (on the NeXT archives).

Since UnSquash is available as such, why isn't it used more often?  It
does a lot better compression than even zip and certainly better
compression than UNIX compress?

$$$.  UnSquash-only is available for free, but Squash itself costs
money.

There is a public domain version that can unsquash such files, called UnSquash
or something like that.
