I would try opening them with BBEdit, there is BBEdit Light which is free and
you can dowload it from <http://web.barebones.com> or
<ftp://ftp.barebones.com/pub/> just look for the right page or directory, if
you don't have the comercial version.
Not sure what they are but BBEdit will open anything and if it can display it
as text it will do so. :-}

Castle Wolfenstein 5.1
For Wolfenstein 3D
Castle Wolfenstein is a 55-level scenario for Wolfenstein 3D (the old one,
not Return to Castle Wolfenstein). From the creator of other fine scenarios
such as First Strike and Temple of Doom, Castle Wolfenstein is probably the
most challenging scenario you will ever play. You will encounter ghosts,
vicious corporals, and the dreaded ENRON EXECUTIVES! Requires the full
version of Wolfenstein 3D.
Version 5.1 includes a new ending and several major bug fixes.
For all the latest news for Castle Wolfenstein and the original Wolfenstein
3D, visit my web site at geocities.com/alvon_del_camio.

Subject: [*] CDFinder 3.6.2 for Mac OS 8.6 - Mac OS X
CDFinder is a very fast and powerful tool to catalog your hard
disks, CD-ROMs, DVDs, floppies, ZIPs and anything else that spins.
It has a great user interface and very useful search functions.
CDFinder supports drag&drop and requires a PowerPC CPU.
While System 8.6 is required, CDFinder is also fully compatible to
MacOS 9.2.2 and Mac OS X.
A special feature is the multi-lingual user interface
(German/French/English/Italian/Swedish/Spanish/Chinese).
Together with CDWinder 1.6 for Windows, <http://www.cdwinder.de/>
this is a special cross platform, network solution to catalog disks
and CD-ROMs on a Macintosh and a PC.
The new version can be obtained from the CDFinder home page
<http://www.cdfinder.de/>.
A single user license of CDFinder is $25, multi user licenses are available.
New in CDFinder 3.6.2:
- CDFinder now handles Mac OS X application packages (Mac OS 9.0 or
newer).
- A new language added to the user interface: Spanish!
- The Audio-CD settings have a new option that allows CDFinder to
access any other freedb server.
- A new Eject menu can eject volumes directly from inside CDFinder.
- All files whose name starts with a period are now declared invisible.
- A few minor bugs have been fixed, regarding the display and
renaming catalog files.
This version requires Mac OS 8.6 and CarbonLib 1.1 or newer.
