- SEA stands for self-extracting-archive, which means that the resource
- fork contains code that will unpack the datafork. Usually the
- datafork is in Compact Pro or Stuffit format, so using "Stuffit
- Expander" will probably work although you may need to change the file
- type and creator, first.
