How to decompress compressed file in Mac
In Mac OS X Tiger, you can create/decompress a .zip file without
using any third party program.
However, for compressed file other than .zip such as
.sit / .sea / .hqx / .sit.hqx / .bin / .mme , etc ...,
you need a small program called StuffIt Expander,

It works similar to WinZip on PC!
