Use StuffIt to generate some segmented BinHex files of your own and then
open them up with an editor to work out the format.

You might need to set the file type and creator directly yourself to get
StuffIt to recognise the files once you have chopped them around. There
are several utilities around that allow you to do this - ResEdit for
example.

There is also a Windows version of StuffIt now available. If you install
this, your PC might learn to recognize the files as attachments.
