AWESOME! ShrinkIt 3.0 will be able to (read:doesn't yet) attach a single comment to the first member record of an archive of 200 bytes. This can be later edited by GS/ShrinkIt. You can never resize the comment area, but in GS/ShrinkIt you can define the size of the comment area (200,400,800,1000 bytes) and to which files comment areas will be attached when the archive is originally built. The same goes for added files or disks... you can attach a comment to only the first file/disk added or all of the files added. So, with shrinkit 3.0 and gs/shrinkit, the first member record of an archive will ALWAYS have a comment attached to it that you can assume will be ther... unless... someone has sorted the archive. andy -- Andy Nicholas InterNET: shrinkit@moravian.edu Box 435, Moravian College uucp: rutgers!liberty!batman!shrinkit Bethlehem, PA 18018 GEnie: shrinkit -- I'm finally a Senior!
