I came up with this little utility as a result of the amount of work
involved in preparing files that are posted to USENET for UNSHAR'ng.
If you don't have access to USENET you probably don't need this utility.
How it works.
-------------
SHPREP is very easy to use. It takes two arguments. It needs to know the
name of the file that needs to be stripped, and where to write the new file.
SHPREP <source_filenaem> <destination_filename>
Once SHPREP is done, all that remains is to run UNSHAR on the destination
file to extract them. This is much better than doing it by hand. If it can
save you some time, please remember by sending your donation in.
Thank you,
KEITH ELBERTSON
