I don't remember the crunch option.  Was this new in 1.3?

On a related note, can anyone post a brief list of feature changes and
enhancements made from 1.2 to 1.3?  Specifically, just how compatible is it
with 3.5" disks and SCSI hard disks?  Does it support any kind of ProDOS file
access through the F(iler or other utilities?
