- I use a prog called Downline. You can configure it to sit around
- polling a specific folder (your download folder). When it finds a
- stuffed, binhex'd or packed file, it will expand them (optionally into
- individual folders and optionally delete the originals).
- I'm not sure where it is just now, but check archie.
- P.S., I use it under 6.0.7 - not sure if its ok for 7.
