I have some files that I copied through ftp, tenex mode. They all 
have names of the form <name>.ARC.<integer>. I understand that the 
files have been compressed, and need to be uncompressed before I can run 
them on an IBM clone. I need the program named (I think) "pkr". If anybody 
in networld has a clue, I would appreciate being enlightened. If it 
makes any difference, the files came from simtel20.army.mil, specifically,
the pd1:<msdos.asmutl> directory. Thanks. =Eric
