BLU <-> NLU ] NuC (sounds like News) [ sounds more like nuisance... not good ] NuCompact [ too UNIXish ] NuCrunch [ maybe ] NuCruncher [ not very descriptive really ] NuFA (NuFX Archiver) [ maybe... sounds a lot like Hoffa ] NuFXCA [ if I could pronounce it, I'd use it ] NuKE (NuFX KrunchEr) [ that's a joke, son ] NuLib [+ not bad... hmm... ] NuPack [ maybe ] NuPacker [ I don't like the -er ones for some reason ] NuSquish [ too reminiscent of dropped Jell-O ] NuStuff [ too StuffIt ish ] PackIt [ been used on the Mac ] Reducer [ different, but not descriptive (NuFX...) ] I'm still open to ideas...
