multiple files such as: .rar .r00 .r01 .r02 and so on.
is there a way to do this without using virtual pc? i'm using os 9 (so i cant use any os x apps). stuffit cant uncompress multiple files, and macrar can only do the same...please help if you can. virtual pc is sloooow on my mac... thanks in advance

If these are files you're creating yourself or that someone is creating for you, is there any chance you can use something else to compress them?
