takes messages from a folder and copies them to a single file.
Each message in the file is separated by four CTRL\-A's and a
newline.
Messages packed can be unpacked using \fIinc\fR.

If the \fIname\fR given to the `\-file\ name' switch exists,
then the messages specified
will be appended to the end of the file, otherwise the file will be created
and the messages appended.
