If you decide > not to, please e-mail me a copy. MacBooz version 2.0 was posted on comp.binaries.mac a while back (and actually made it through in a couple of months). If anyone wants a copy of the program, let me know. I would be glad to send it out. I wrote MacBooz 2.0. Currently I am working on version 2.1 which fixes a little list manager bug, uses the full extended filenames provided by Zoo, and allows multiple open archives (the last one is just to see if I can do it :-). I hope to have this finished in the next couple of weeks. I will then post it as well. I thought I would have it out before Christmas, but lots of things seemed to have popped up... There are additional features I am working on including as well, and I am still taking requests, so feel free to write. I am also looking for the most recent source for Unzip for the Mac. (The two programs may get merged...) I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has a copy of this. (I don't have access to any archives.) -Michael -- Michael Niehaus UUCP: !{iuvax,pur-ee}!bsu-cs!mithomas Apple Student Rep ARPA: mithomas@bsu-cs.bsu.edu Ball State University AppleLink: ST0374 (from UUCP: st0374@applelink.apple.com)
