I was wondering what the -> purpose of a library is and how you go about using one. I have -> only one '.LBR' file on the disks called 'LUX42.LBR' (on the modem7 -> program disk) and haven't been able to manipulate the data in it to -> any great extent (other than listing it's members using 'NULU'). NULU will also allow you to extract the member files. Use the -H command to see a listing of the various options available in NULU. A library file is simply a method of grouping certain files together into one file for transfer or storage. Often the files are also compressed in some way as well (squeezed, crunched etc...)
