   Just a note about MacCompress...it's not exactly the most reliable
program.  I can't get it to work with compressed files over 20K or so.
I tried upping the RAM, and instead of crashing on >20K files, it
produces output files on the order of five megs in size(!)  And the
author has moved on to bigger and better things...
