I have found out that if the name of a UNIX file contains more
than one dot character (say TEST.1.2), then if I compress them
using the lharc program on UNIX and then try to decompress it on
the PC (using lharc x lzhname) , I get the following message:


LHarc 1.13c (c) Yoshi, 1988-1989

Can't write file : 'TEST.1.2'


One way of course is to ensure that the UNIX files do not contain
multiple dots in their names. But if that is not possible,
is there an improved version of the lharc program on the PC
that does not have this problem?
