The Phrack Magazine Extraction Utility, first appearing in P50, is a convenient
way to extract code from textual ASCII articles.  It preserves readability and
7-bit clean ASCII codes.  As long as there are no extraneous "<++>" or <-->" in
the article, everything runs swimmingly.

Source and precompiled version (windows, unix, ...) is available at
http://www.phrack.org/misc.

 *
 *  extract.c
 *  Extracts textfiles from a specially tagged flatfile into a hierarchical 
 *  directory structure.  Use to extract source code from any of the articles 
 *  in Phrack Magazine (first appeared in Phrack 50).
 *
 *  Extraction tags are of the form:
 *
 *  host:~> cat testfile
 *  irrelevant file contents
 *  <++> path_and_filename1 !CRC32
 *  file contents
 *  <-->
 *  irrelevant file contents
 *  <++> path_and_filename2 !CRC32
 *  file contents
 *  <-->
 *  irrelevant file contents
 *  <++> path_and_filenamen !CRC32
 *  file contents
 *  <-->
 *  irrelevant file contents
 *  EOF
 *
 *  The `!CRC` is optional.  The filename is not.  To generate crc32 values 
 *  for your files, simply give them a dummy value initially.  The program
 *  will attempt to verify the crc and fail, dumping the expected crc value.
 *  Use that one.  i.e.:
 *
 *  host:~> cat testfile
 *  this text is ignored by the program
 *  <++> testarooni !12345678
 *  text to extract into a file named testarooni
 *  as is this text
 *  <--> 
 *
 *  host:~> ./extract testfile
 *  Opened testfile
 *   - Extracting testarooni
 *   crc32 failed (12345678 != 4a298f18)
 *  Extracted 1 file(s).  
 *
 *  You would use `4a298f18` as your crc value.
 *
 *  Compilation:
 *  gcc -o extract extract.c
 *  
 *  ./extract file1 file2 ... filen
