I need a way to create Stuffit compatible zip files from within python. My 
experimentation indicates that a Stuffit created zip file is a collection 
of MacBinary files, zipped up.

I should therefore be able to create a Stuffit compatible zip file from 
within python (which has built in zip support) as long as I can get the 
MacBinary versions of the included files.

Does anyone out there knows of a python module (that actually works) which 
can create and disassemble MacBinary files, I would LOVE to know about it. 
There are such things for PERL and TCL, but I have not been able to find a 
python version...

At worst, is there a darwin command line executable to do this?Thanks!
